Agreed. One of the main reasons I read DST a lot (even though I post rarely) is because I enjoy getting new perspectives on the issues. I'd say my thoughts on issues have changed fairly often. My mind has been changed to the other side of the argument much less, but it has happened a few times.

I've never had my opinion changed after being part of a lengthy discussion, probably because if I feel strongly enough about something to continue posting about it it would take divine intervention to make me change my mind. That, or I'm just posting to play devil's advocate.

Reading long threads that I stay out of however, all the time. Especially on subjects I am not as well-informed on.

I'd also like to think that people have read and been influenced by what I've been writing for the past two years, as I do feel I have a few thoughts that are quite epic.

ATG, Kmarion, and CamPoe have put up a lot of good points, and occasionally caused me to reconsider, but the radical rantings of a lot of our members have also served to further cement a lot of my views.

I try to keep an open mind about things, so yes, I have changed my stances on many things and in many ways as a result of discussing things here.

Of course, some people seem to look down on that concept.

I went from " leader of the oil guzzling neocons " to considering a job offer from a mexican guy who owns a multi-million dollars metal company.


Yes, I have changed my mind. I attribute it more to changing world realities to anything anyone has posted. But I must say, CP is right a lot of the times goddamnit.

world domination by Cougar wouldn't be such a bad thing. There could be worse.
