[MD] sorry krimel

[gav]

i wish to apologise for my outburst krimel...and to anyone else offended.
i have been a wee bit emotional, for whatever reason, and i have let that influence my postings.
regaining some perspective, i realise that however we disagree, this disagreement is relatively trivial stuff. these words we throw at each other are an intellectual pasttime and they do not (directly) reveal the true nature of the individual. sometimes they do offer a glimpse, but this is usually tangential to the topic of discussion.
what i am saying is that i glean from your posts that in truth i would probably get on well with you, arguing over a beer or two. i do have respect for your intelligence, which is one reason i get so frustrated with my inability to reach concurrence with you.
the reason i get overly emotional is that sometimes the link between the ideas we collectively hold and the 'objective' social reality 'out there' becomes so apparent, so vivid. i feel that this forum is a salutary exercise in trying to convey this idea well - amongst many other things.
therefore i feel like i am almost representing, or trying to represent, the whole world, the possibility of a humane rational world, a world in which we are all free and live abundantly. it's a mighty dream and overcomes me sometimes, obviously.
sorry
gav
