There isn't really an answer I "want"...I have no skin in this game...I'm just trying to understand where the boundaries of this are.  And I really am sorry if this has all been discussed over and over again.  Like I said, I have been largely avoiding the AI threads because it seemed like only certain opinions were really welcome.  But at the same time I want to understand.</blockquote>
