Maybe newman pissed some people off I don't think that the overwhelming majority of people here had their "blood pressure spike through the roof" as a result. I saw the little skirmish you guys got into the other day, you're one of the few people that's happened to. Many more people than not enjoy the company of newman and love newman.
I was being more facetious about the blood pressure statement. For the most part, he's fun, amusing, and entertaining. But unfortunately, he was also quite tactless and inconsiderate at times. That in itself is a separate issue from viewpoints.
Ze'ev, you and Newman seem to have very similar viewpoints. The difference is is that you are a lot more eloquent, respectful, and becoming in how you express yourself.
