I didn't know dolphins had larger brains than humans ...I learn something new everyday on this forum
As far as tolerating intolerance.... I think we have to guard against intolerance as we get older it's so easy to think we are always right and discard the views of others sometimes it's us who are intolerant...we just don't recognise it in ourselves.

Re: Tolerating Intolerance
On a more serious note, the problem with all forums is the absence of 'body language'. How much we can tell in a face to face situation is often crucial to not getting a wrong perception of some one's intent. I always try to assume the best intention with, perhaps, a small doubt if the conversation continues down the wrong path.|
