btw Kritical, I think your sig quote:

 

I may not aggree(sic) with what you say sir however I shall defend to the death your right to say it.

 

originally comes from Voltaire - I had that as my MSN name for a while last year.

 

Edit: Oxford dictionary of quotations has something to say on that:

 

I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

 

Attributed to Voltaire, the words are in fact S. G. Tallentyre's summary of Voltaire's attitude towards Helv‚tius, following the ban on De l'Esprit in 'The Friends of Voltaire' (1907) p. 199

 

Voltaire has some great quotes actually
