Oh, and I knew ahead of time I "wasn't going to win this one". I've not
seen anyone on this list get changed by anyone else's argument, no
matter how wrong the leftie is or how right the rightie is.
I think we should keep our label (we'd remain "the right"), and change
ya'lls (you'd be "the wrong"). It would make settling these things so
much easier.
Barring that little fantasy, I guess the pudding holding the proof is
going to come around sometime in November....
