    Hey Platt,
    I'm still not sure how you can agree that the Dynamic choice is generally
    more moral, and at the same time believe that one should choose the status
    quo unless convinced otherwise. That seems like a basic contradiction to
    me. It would seem to me that if the Dynamic choice is generally more moral
    than one who is interested in making moral choices would want to err on the
    side of Dynamic choice if not presented with clear reason not to. But let
    each member decide for themselves.

    Thanks for the debate.

    take care
    rick
