Duane, my friend, if you cannot engage in casual political comments or discussion without getting all hot under the collar, then I suggest you consider taking an extremely large chill pill, perhaps many of them, washed down with the beer of your choice, and attempt to remove the glutenous obstruction in your ass.

Consider also, reading some of her novels. They are first rate writing, as well as interesting and deeply compelling subject matter. Fucking weird SF too. Especially the Xenogenesis series.
Only open minds may apply.
