Yes, way scary indeed. I still feel pretty weak overall and I am waiting for the people to call for a cat scan I guess it is. The surgeon says the 3 stents he put in stay in place but the aorta can move sometimes.

I have no idea what Dave or Nancy's political leanings are. I do know that they are two darn fine people.

We will also start enforcing the rule that is strictly enforced at AK: public discussions of moderation decisions are off limits. That means that if discipline is imposed, there will be no cartwheels of celebration or bitching about it being unfair. There are plenty of topics here for discussion. Moderation will not be one of them.

This has been a topic of serious discussion among the moderators and the management.

You know, Don, this is really a sad situation.

You would think that we, as the chosen few, could manage to elevate our rhetoric beyond the level of a 2nd grader.

Guess not.

Personally, the profanity has never bothered me, but the mentality of attacking one's intelligence, or one's station in life over a simple political disagreement certainly has. Perhaps this is a result of being unable to differentiate between a hypothesis and a conclusion.

Anyway, this is not a game adults play.

It's not due to any inability. It's a manifestation of the emotions. Some people enjoy kicking others around.

Simple logic, if you are wrong then I am right. So if you are full of shit, then you are always wrong.

Agreed that it is sad. I know the comment about the chosen few was tongue in cheek, but if you look at us we are really the outcasts. We engage here in the conversations that are forbidden at AK. In any event, I thought that we could be governed by the concept that this is a marketplace of ideas, but it hard to have a market when there are some who insist on knocking over the apple cart.

By the way, glad to see you poking you head in every once in a while.

Regards,

D-Ray
