Thank you, Rob, for sharing your insights on my opinions.

Yes, you acknowledged a precise point about pride. We tend to agree with our views that benefit us and simply rule out the view of others, may it be favorable or not, true or not. We only believe what we want to believe. I guess that's the play pride plays with us all.

And sure, whenever I will visit New Jersey, I'll be glad to carry on this conversation metaphysically. Ice tea will be on me. ;)

And I think putting blinders on the eyes and earbuds in the ears might provide us the momentary solution rather than permanent.

I hope best for your wife, Janet. They are the true soldiers who hold against an invisible enemy and fight. Respect and love from India!!!

Thank you for hearing me out.
