Warning: This post was published more than 10 years ago.

I keep old posts on the site because sometimes it's interesting to read old content. Not everything that is old is bad. Also, I think people might be interested to track how my views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have mellowed and matured!

But given the age of this post, please bear in mind:

• My views might have changed in the 10 years since I wrote this post.
• This post might use language in ways which I would now consider inappropriate or offensive.
• Factual information might be outdated.
• Links might be broken; embedded material might not appear properly.

Many thanks for your understanding.
