Subject: A few threads keep coming up
I'm trying (for a change) not to inflame hostilities here, but would like to
add to this list "if you don't like it, the delete button still works", as a
topic that's been done to death.
As stated, this is an open forum, and as such, any attempts to regulate
which topics are 'in' and 'out' amounts to censorship, to which I am
vehemently opposed. It was an honest musing, and clearly has touched a few
raw nerves. But that's what the net's for. It's not the be all and end all,
nor is it a tool for to be 'used' by people to their own end. It is a
melting pot of opinions and optlooks, and you should take what you want from
it, not govern what others put into it.
