I did "back up" my statement. Someone just doesn't want to do the reading. Your blind, biased rationale leads you to hopeless deductions such as the concept of equality of the sexes. There can never be "equality" of the sexes. That is not to say that one is superior to the other. Actually, as a practical construction, equality is simply impossible to achieve. "a" does not simply equal "a." If you think that it does, then it's time for YOU to make an argument.

Regarding Dylan, if one were to eschew a musician's politics to the point of totally rejecting their music (or vice versa) one would have no practical use for an iPod.
