   Last year my parents resolved the Abilene paradox in our marriage. After 7 years we all had Xmas together and I roasted a turkey. They asked why. I said my husband and the kids like it. They all said they were enduring it for me. We all hate turkey. This year we're having lamb.

     @fesshole It helps a lot to actually talk to your spouse. I know it's icky-poo and I gather it's highly un-British, but the updide is you'll avoid many an Abilene paradox.

     @fesshole Why not do the environment, your wallet, your health, and the animals a favor by giving Tofurkey ( or another entree ) a try?
