George,

There's no getting around it. You were right.

The more Josh Wheeler explains the concept behind the chalkboard, the less water my objections hold. He developed a good idea. Unlike what some of us thought, his board is intended to bring us face-to-face - not with myths about free speech - but with realities.

He might or might not agree that's akin to what I do with far less finesse on my web site, http://www.freewarehof.org/myths.html#speech

Wheeler's explanations were sound. Count one less opponent, one more supporter.
