That's pretty much the bottom line that many of us have tried to portray,
Lysane.  You put it in a nutshell.  (And you are correct that Darolyn also
shoes when the situation warrants--something that too many who claim to
follow her methods don't seem to understand.)

And Tom Sites has the right idea, too--this is a debate, not a crusade. 
The problems come about when it becomes the latter.
