Melissa (and others), I would maintain that these discussions are part of
the critical work that needs attention and that discourse has many
facets, including the more scholarly, dialogical, and polemical.  I don't
view any of these dimensions of discourse as inherently superior or
inferior, but that's just me, though I do agree that what keeps open the
discussion and what tends to close it are important matters.

George
