FL~~ Interesting thoughts you received from a "ghostie poster"... I personally think you have created a wonderful salon here in cyberland. A civil (mostly) and timely interesting place to discuss foreign affairs, current events, meet people's brains and their ideas from all over the world, to be serious, and have fun, depending on the topic. Nadine's comments, LB's, BBB's were all right on target, IMO.
If you want to have a different type of thread, the "friend of FADG" or you could start one with those rules. You are doing a good job with this one, and the way it has turned out, even if it wasn't what the purists envisioned.
Mistake was being democratic, and letting everyone post, as long as they followed your rules. In other words, you added people to the mix.
You can never go home again.
Start something new.
Everyone is "wrong/silly/crazy/fillintheblank" except you and me, and sometimes I wonder about you. <g> |
