“I can see that we will remain at a little bit of an impasse and it will probably stay that way.”
- You are right, but I will say that although you come across as gruff at times, I respect your comments.

“Music = trivial
Warfare = consequential”
- I disagree. Music has helped many veterans during and after war. They have found peace in the music or lyrics.

- As far as Frank Sinatra; I’ve heard this a few times in my life. He disappointed many people by chasing fame rather than our enemies. It has happened since as well. Musicians, politicians, men in sports. I agree that it is hard to support people who would rather sing in a club than support their country. Hell, even Elvis joined the military! Not a fan of his either, but I also give him the credit he deserves!

Chainmail, I will admit it has been a pleasure having this discussion with you. Although both of us came across as gruff at times. Actually, let me rephrase that. We came across as passionate. Differing opinions, yet able to see each others side... to a point!
