I'm looking forward to the response. =) Thanks for that, the optionality of this place as a slaughterhouse for divergent culinary preferences is one abattoir we should all drive past without stopping to look inside. You and David have done yeoman work to guide gentler discourse, yet neither my battle axe nor your high road have produced lasting results. It becomes then impossible to separate this from the global divide of right v. left as our planet takes a final binary bow out on hominid evolution. Not the first time that hatred has cycled through here, not by far. I guess it's like podcaster Jimmy Church's sig line - GoBekLiTepe baby!
