Tom (who is a good guy, BTW) told you to go look up "pragmatism",
meaning "you're not being pragmatic". You responded with name calling.
You've got to give people the benefit of the doubt in a text-based
forum like this one.
Ummm...no! I use pragmatic in a pajoritive sense (ie, it brings about
short-term solutions that have disasterous long-term consequences).
Practical, principled...they're different.
You should maybe look up pragmatic in the dictionary... ;)
Misc "words have their plain & simple meanings <G>"

A "great" review is one with the name of the cigar before the review text
in the body of the post. :)
This is a riot! And a damn funny one too. :-D
Look up *Herd Behavior*.
I'll do it for you
Herd behavior describes how individuals in a group can act together
without planned direction. The term pertains to the behavior of
animals in herds, flocks, and schools, and to human conduct during
activities such as stock market bubbles and crashes, street
demonstrations, sporting events, episodes of mob violence and even
everyday decision making, judgement and opinion forming.
