   I think you know I'll answer your question (in more detail than you'll   
   want and you won't have to remind me).  But I'm still unclear on your   
   response to mine:   
      
   You seem to hear exaggeration in my allowing a woman to control *every*   
   aspect of her pregnancy.  (There's none.)  Does your comparison mean you   
   actually *wouldn't* allow individuals access to unlimited lethal power?
