Its all in the approach. I have had good conversations in which I have changed my original opinion on something because it was a good conversation and vice versa. As soon as I sense any kind of bigotry, unwillingness, interruptive or otherwise bad behavior, I am done with the conversation, I just check out. I never talk about politics because most people are set in their opinions and its probably not going to change so I see no point in debating it and some people take their politics pretty personally which makes it more volatile.
A fruitful conversation is when both parties are open minded, willing to listen and consider a different perspective. A useless argument is when one or both parties are dead set in their opinion, not willing to listen and not open to a different prospective.
We had some rain, lots of wind, but way warmer than it should be. I guess this is happening in a lot of places though there are parts of Canada now that are under snow.
