Yes, the issues have potential relevance everywhere, but perhaps the buttons
don't. It hasn't been worth the name-calling on either side.

But Beatriz is right, sometimes our separation from the outside world on
this list gets ridiculous. Take Mason Shefa's recent post "dating a perfect
film" as an example. I know it's often hard to find the perfect man/woman,
but should we all give up so easily?

Let's move on, shall we?
