If one were, say, on the outside looking in, how would one know who is an apologist and who isn't? Is there a list somewhere?
When I read on the MADB, I enjoy Kathrine the Great most of the time. I like how DCP thinks through things, but he does come across as arogant at times. I like how Runtu thinks as well. But, as he has stepped out into the light with the rest of us, is he an apologist?

Nothing against you Liz, but to hell with being on a list of faves. I want my damn coffee mug (or T-shirt, or flogging, or whatever it is I get with the position).
If I don’t get my comeuppance for being an apologist, I’m quitting (I've heard that the Anti's have better health-care...)

I heard after you die the coverage stops.

To me, it's like being shown into a room with several piles of dog crap on the floor, all slightly different in one respect or another, and my escort asks me, "Which one is your favorite?"
I don't know about you, but I don't really care for dog crap.
If you don't like apologists....why are you coming to a board that attracts them? To extend your analogy, why do you keep coming into the room with several piles of dog crap on the floor?

A possible Some Schmo answer:
I think dog crap is bad stuff to have on the floor where people might tread on it. So I try to clean it up, and to discourage further deposits.
Of course, that is only an ill-educated guess on my part.
