[M.D. Holloway]

Bob - centrism to work out an issue is the heart of negotiation, as an ideal is far more complicated. It requires knowing both sides arguements and motives very deeply and pulling the best of both sides to form your own idea. It doesn't surprise me that you are a centrist, your posts are intellegent and insightful.

There is a point in an arguement that requires a side to be taken. It may not feel 100% right. A commitment must be made and followed through. You can't always be a bridge.
