Well, you are all very persuasive. Five minutes ago, I was completely agreeing with Enya. Now that I have read yours Doris, I am more inclined to take the 50/50 approach. You express your opinion in the last part extremely well. Thank you for making me re-think my own opinion. When writing makes the reader re-think what he or she thought was right, that's the mark of a good writer.
I think we have to make this subject the topic of a discussion tomorrow because there are clearly differences of opinion and each writer has good reasons for what he or she says. See you tomorrow, Doris. Laraine
