OK, thanks for that! I'll look into it. I assumed I was using the
latest version as it wasn't long ago that I downloaded it.

Happy Lisping!

The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly
limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate
within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident
views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going
on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being
reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.
