So, I was thinking...

TO A POLITICAL MINDED FRIEND: "I was thinking that the volume of opinion politico on facebook simply overwhelms and erodes any good intention that may be gained by a single pertinent post. How much opinion can a person actually swallow without bloating, choking, and cramping? And of course there's discourse, and then, of course, there's the unrestrained bullying...   Regardless, I do not mean any of what I say here to be aimed at you. I enjoy your world-awareness posts, but, as you say, it sounds best that you post "the ugly stuff" on a secondary page. I'll keep up with you on both pages.  And, as always, thanks for the enlightenment."
