When is a minority too small?

I apologize for the unfamiliar metaphor. I believe I understand your comments just fine but I think you do not understand mine. Unfortunately, the "byproduct" of metal refining consists of everything that is left over (oxides, impurities, etc.). By using the phrase "fuming slag," I was thinking more along the lines of what is left in the debris of an explosion when all of the metal and junk is melted and fused together. However, I hate to disappoint you but I wasn't referring to either of you with my metaphor. I'm just not that mean-spirited. I was just admiring how this topic "exploded" into something else.

I think I'm the only one who actually crossed over into "taboo" territory with my comments on discrimination suits. By the way, that was an allusion to a reoccurring theme in recent events. I don't apologize for those comments but if it upsets you, I suppose you can call it fuming slag.

MJ, I enjoyed your comments on Communism vs. Capitalism. That is basically what I've been saying since the beginning of this topic.
