Hardly frustrated! Believe it or not, I do change my opinions and perspectives when I find that warranted, but my view of the world is not lazily arrived at, and to see a need to change it requires an argument I find even on reflection I can't answer. HN is one of the most reliable sources of those that I know, and developing a thread in this way is one of the more reliable methods I know to improve my odds of eliciting one. Luckily for me, I have enough of a prickly, disputatious streak in my own nature to appreciate the process quite as much as the result.
