Tim Young replied to Tim Young's discussion Being right"Well I AM essentially talking about opinion. Because really - that is all there is.

Tim Young replied to Tim Young's discussion Being right"Yes I agree open-mindedness is of paramount importance. Even if you think you know all there is to know about something it pays to stay open minded about the possibility of new information on that subject coming to light."
