Hey J.C. It is a shame, a shame on those who try to stifle the opinions of those who do not agree with them. I for one will not succumb to being shouted down, or "swept", as it is termed here. This forum has always been somewhat raucous, but that is part of it's charm. On the other hand it has also been a place where ideas have had to stand or fall on the strength of their own merits. Apparently some here, are having a little trouble with the strength of theirs, and that seems to be the real reason for this attempt to silence (sweep) the riffraff. Who exactly do you think those people who needed to be swept are anyway and why? Apparently, they know who they are. How did you ever survive the university environment? You must have been a closeted free thinker. Did you ever get reported on for being so subversive? How odd that the institutions that pride themselves on being "all about" freedom of thought, would somehow be transformed into little more than closed and moderated threads. From think tanks, to think cells. Please tell me that I am wrong. I enjoy your posts, don't stop. Please feel free to disagree with me at any time, but I would also like to know why? Have a great day. Greg
