While you walk
There are two schools of thought on knives and dishwater.
That's right, "knives and dishwater" is a category. Didn't know that, did you?
One school says, "Never.. ever.. put a sharp knife in the dishwater. Because you can't see it. You might not know it's down there, or forget about it our something, and while you're swishing around in the sink like hungry raccoon you'll slice yourself open like a Christmas turkey and THEN how will you feel!? Huh!?"
The other school says, "Why wouldn't there be knives in the dishwater? They're dishes. Duh. Try not to hurt yourself while you walk, m'kay?"
These are the two schools of thought. On knives and dishwater.

Having been on the blade end of a knife in the dishwater I am of the school that believes they should not be there. Instead, I like to have the knives next to the sink. I'll then wash them by hand and put them where they belong and no one needs to lose blood.
Dude... why *wouldn't* there be knives in there? What's next.. banning sharks from the ocean? Dennis Kuccinich (to pick a random and misspelled name) would be disappointed, I think.
So you're pro-knife-in-dishwasher, John? Is that what we're to think?
You need to make your position clear. Don't try to cater to everybody.

I think it's important, and it's important to the people, to realize that this issue isn't just about positioning or usage, but about what cutlery really is and what it means to us in this current climate.
Have you thought about how the cutlery feels about this. What a knife must go through? How did it end up forgotten and the bottom of a sink of dirty dishwater? Isn't that the real issue we should be addressing?
No. It's totally not.
