[quote=stopdog;2199661]I don't fully equate adversary as enemy. Perhaps worthy opponent would be more accurate.quote]

I sooooo understand this! Thanks for saying it, stopdog.
It kind of goes back to another thread here on PC--I love a good debate and if I can't have it, then I'm disappointed. Unfortunately, my therapist will often say, "I'm not going to debate this with you. I know you know the literature better than I do." Somehow, it always makes me all warm inside Just gotta love my competitive, narcissistic need to win!
