We have our own, built-in, unconscious filter, I think, which selects those who are like-minded.

I hope all the additional exposure our little forum gets brings in those who are very unlike us in mindedness. I appreciate the disagreement we have, though I've rarely voiced mine. I greatly appreciate seeing other perspectives because it gives me fodder for introspection. Further, it sometimes changes my mind about how I see and what I think. Bring on the disagreeable masses!
