Will there be people in sexy swimsuits?
Yes, but tasteful.

I vote we start a movement called SANE PEOPLE FOR RATIONAL COMPROMISE and start standing on streetcorners drawing people into sensible and reasoned debates. Think it'll catch on?
Since I was just being amused that how to make an Old-Fashioned [link] can cause people to propose settling the argument with swords at dawn, I think you've got your work cut out for you.

already a member. Despite that fact that others think I am betraying the 'cause' by seeing a compromise as a stop on the road to sanity.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Thanks anyway, Hil, I found some stuff.
Including Ingrid Newkirk, one of PETA's founders, "half-jokingly" advocating that members who convert their SO to veganism dump 'em and go get another to convert. Awesome!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Speaking of Joe the Plumber/War Correspondent:
I’ll be honest with you. I don’t think journalists should be anywhere allowed war. I mean, you guys report where our troops are at. You report what’s happening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I think it’s asinine. You know, I liked back in World War I and World War II when you’d go to the theater and you’d see your troops on, you know, the screen and everyone would be real excited and happy for’em. Now everyone’s got an opinion and wants to downer–and down soldiers. You know, American soldiers or Israeli soldiers.
I think media should be abolished from, uh, you know, reporting. You know, war is hell. And if you’re gonna sit there and say, “Well look at this atrocity,” well you don’t know the whole story behind it half the time, so I think the media should have no business in it.

So how do you people feel about cilantro, muffalettas, serial commas, and cheetahs in a squash court?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
