I'm looking forward to discussing this with Chemguy later.  I'm pretty opinionated, but I also use many qualifiers as it opens me up to express what I think while staying open minded when I'm not sure of all the details.  I probably do so a bit less when writing than when speaking.

Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.      Veronica A. Shoffstall

I used this quote recently in a thread started by Musicsoothes. It was in response to Dogorious’ comment that he hoped he will have the nerve to apply for jobs I might only dream of.
