You need people from both sides to learn. Fox will never convert Democrats and CNN will not convert Republicans. Preaching to the choir does not accomplish anything. You do not have to agree with opposing view points, but to dismiss them blindly is foolish. People are negative and positive about Elio for a reason.
Personally, I don't dismiss anything blindly. I read every word and give the words consideration.
What I have noticed is that occasionally posters come to this site with nothing but negativity. (As with any forum – on any subject.)
I've read their first posts, their middle posts and current posts. It's always negative and snarky. I'm not so sure they even like the concept of the Elio – because they've never said
anything positive.
I'm all for being a realist. It's also a good thing for one to be fair.
PS – I do appreciate the moderators and thank them!!
