What am I looking for?

[Said1]

The members who would leave, if they don't change their style, would be welcome - CELEBRATED? in their departure. This isn't an option - Jim and we will run the board how we see fit. (note period.) If people don't LIKE it, they'd be welcome to leave. We see the board now, lately, going downhill very quickly - not a direction we'd like. Jim's policies are the the betterment of the board, as a whole.

Don't fret. I'm back.

Have you set a date then?

I tied a date to the funding package I proposed to Jim - He veto'd it.

But you support the troops, right?

Anarchy ceases to be anarchy when anarchist make it into a movement and organize it I agree. I just like the symbol and some of the ideas behind it even tho if put in to practice in full it would be totally impractical and not possible.

Wow ! A rational, reasoned Anarchist. I'm impressed. I'll bet I might even enjoy having a beer with you, and discussing our radical differences.

PS ... I agree with you. The A-symbol is really kewl graphic arts. A very memorable icon. The best of minds of Madison Avenue would be jealous.

I'm sure there are at least a few wondering as to why I want to tighten things up around here. Again, this isn't about censoring anyone or their points of view, but rather to enhance the board for everyone.

I've received quite a few PM's over the past month with people disappointed in the way the board has become. A few great members have left completely, and others don't post as much. This is not good. While I expect there to be some animosity and feuding, it should never reach a level to where good members feel the need to leave.

Please, continue the debates, get heated if you feel like it, just don't make it too personal. I want an adult atmosphere for intelligent people to debate without restriction, but also want to keep respectability for the board as well.

A bit of biff between posters is to be expected no? I give a bit of biff so I expect some back. What really makes me annoyed is when a poster goes after another and just attacks in the most personal manner. It's like watching a nasty divorce. Unwarranted. But - as I say, a bit of heated opposition or even the odd slur is no big deal, well for me at least.

And 17 too.

Jimmy Buffet sang " ... 15'll get you 20 ..."

Will 17 get me on an NBC hidden cam ? Not worth the risk

Nope.
