Thanks Dick, these are all great ideas. I frankly don't shy away from the
fact I am a Federrationest, and to 
be honest there are alot of things I agree with ACB on, however, for my
professional life I want to present 
my students with both sides without taking sides. What I am actually
looking for is some scholarly 
information that I can cite. So if anyone can provide me with some
scholarly that I can use, I would 
appreciate it.

thanks
Anmol

there is just a touch of yearning 
at times; but it is vague, like a breeze among flowers.
