20 March 2002 20:24Everyone's got an opinion. Everyone has a spin on things. I find it perpetually frustrating, amusing, and thought-provoking in turn that so many people don't seem to be able to consider/keep in mind that they don't have all the information, that there is another side to the story they're involved in, that they could possibly be wrong or sheltered or naive or close-minded or unaware or confused... anything other than 100% correct and unassailable in their correctness. Often these are the people who make a lot of noise to the effect of "I *know* there's two sides! I know I don't know everything!" and then can provide a million excuses as to why that doesn't apply in "this" situation.
