In any event, at this point I am just so annoyed by this thread that I'm going to close it so I don't have to listen to the nonsense anymore.

personally, i almost closed that thread several times myself. In retrospect, I probably should have. that kind of debate never goes anywhere, and for many participants, has WAY TOO MUCH MEANING. Therefore, by definition, it didn't belong there, and should have been moved to the trash on day 1. EFH was really just picking up the slack where others (like myself) dropped the ball.
