I'm knackered. I have a busy weekend (boring work to do and a busy week ahead) before I head down to Cairns for the weekend to enjoy a much deserved drink! Then, I'll be resuming studies - Social Sciences in fact. :D

I don't know if I'll make a reply to this anytime soon - its worn me out a little. It would be nice to hear others' views re the latter part of this debate.

Here you state my linguistic tenor is adversarial, does this mean you would like me to write in a way you deem more 'politically correct'? Shall I panda and alter my tenor, so I do not upset your sensitive mind.

ouch

Yes, that was a bit narky but only because some of his comments come across as dogmatic.   :D

Yeah, I'm done for a while on this stuff too.  It's summer FFS (up here anyway!). :O

I'm also curious to hear other people's views on Britain's social ills (as long as the discussion's civil).  Maybe now that we've side-stepped the Frankfurt School and Postmodern critical theory, that can happen.

I'm sure your Social Studies prof's going to have his (oops! :p ) her hands full!  :D
