That's not a reason to claim that Bill and/or I made this place "inhospitable" unless you condone the hypocrisy...

You mentioned in your previous post the importance of context. You have yours. I have mine. My context was, as I said, that this is a new thread. The header says it's for people of all political persuasions as long as they obey the minimal rules. A noble experiment. In that context, it seems to me that X or anyone else is welcome on this thread until and unless she or he breaks the rules and that old animosities should not be a factor here, in this place. As part of expressing that perspective, I have made a personal request to Bill, Laz, and you to set aside the baggage. I don't think that I am condoning hypocrisy by proposing a fresh start for everyone on this thread. I don't see why we can't all suspend disbelief for some honeymoon period, at least. My request is simply that, a personal request, which I am sure you will treat as you see fit.
