Away for most of yesterday, I've only now "caught up" w/ MDD posts.
re. lg
None of us are perfect. For my taste, lg seemed a tad "thin skinned" and sometimes too quick to ban (Teresa comes to mind). OTOH being far from perfection myself, I don't expect it in others. Moreover my opinion of lg is based primarily on the generosity he consistently exhibited - both to others and to me personally. There is little doubt in my mind that the time he spent in maintaining this thread cost him trading profits, yet he continued to give.
Ignorance precludes me from commenting on specific posts on the CFZ. Although I lurk on a wide variety of threads, other than specific links, I avoid the CFZ. I have a great deal of respect for some who frequently post there, but unfortunately an "offal odor" seems to permeate.
The many posts by Zeev, Jim Bryan, Stephen, bb, Kymar, Yogi, Vitalsigns, TA (enjoyed 71087), Dave kilty, et al (too many to remember) should give SI pause. Reprehensibly, the mindset that suspended the TOU for a "special thread" and sets dual standards for adversarial SI posters, engenders negligible hope.
For me it will "spring eternal", and I look forward to lg's return.
