Not saying get it tattooed on, but ...

Marc Elias also forcefully makes the case today -- and even though I sometimes feel hammered by some of the people who are delivering nothing but facts, I try to turn aside at least some of my sensitivities to the delivery in order to use the information they've taken the time & energy to give the rest of us (I've never liked a tone argument)
