[yeah, that point of view makes a little sense to him, even if it's complicated. he smiles, sighs a bit in what would seem to be relief.]
That's...a good way of thinking of it, I think. I do care about a lot of the people over there quite a bit. I don't want them stuck someplace like that forever.
[he drums his fingers against the table.]
As for that...yes, and I've been on the receiving end of it, too. But it's different to me when it's someone who just went down then and there. That's just...medicine. Bringing someone back who's been gone for longer...you and I both know that it can be done. Should is a trickier question. Both mine and yours I think hold similar views on it. Sometimes, maybe, if the need arises and it's important, but - caring about them, usually that's not enough.
