I have done 180 turns and close to 180's , but i'm young so to me it's perfectly normal and a part of my growth.

all the changes of mind I have experienced, since i'm naturaly pig-headed, were because of learning from experience. I realised, after re-aligning my perceptions, that I was wrong. But it never was a matter of sitting me down and convincing me of anything - I had to LIVE my mistake or my wrongfullness and earn all the cold facts myself before changing my mind.

If you are specificaly think of an exchange of ideas like the global warming thread, I stick to the information I have, until someone or something presents me with objective facts and new information that is undiscutable - then I remeasure my own point of view. But I'M rarely purely "convinced", unless I jsut didn't understand something in the first place, and my opinion was based on mis-interpretation of information....

So many ways!
