Moderation isn't an end point, or even a center point,
necessarily. Rather than a template, it is an approach,
a tone, a cock of the head, an open mind, a willing ear,
an unjaundiced eye. A moderate wonders what other facts
might be brought to bear. A moderate figures we're in
this together and believes that a meeting of the minds
is not tantamount to surrender.

“Want boring? Talk to someone enamored of his own certitude.“

No! Joke! Thanks for the link (am getting to it belatedly, and even more so than the 2012 pub date—better late, tho!) it made me feel immoderately moderate. ❤️
