 
Funny how the oldest guy on the board (besides maybe Dean by a year or two) is the most "liberal". 

  I think my time working for a French company and spending time in France pulled me to the left/populist.  And my 10 years in South Carolina and 2 years in Oklahoma revolted away from the right.  And now the Mayberrry Mackiavellis have pushed me farther left.  I am definitely much more "left" than when I was 20yo.
But... I didn't like how the questions were phrased in many cases either.  My answer for most difficult questions of weight is in general, "It depends".  And it does depend... usually.
edit: Whoops, looks like JC might be more "liberal".  He certainly is liberal in his EVO wheel selection...
