doesn't mean that some of the tools it (used ?) aren't valid and necessary and shouldn't be part of a constructive rebalancing effort. Well, you and I have come to an agreement! We just got there from different ends, I guess. I would rather have heard the reasons before the action. But the discussion part seems to have gotten lost along the way, if it ever started, for this admin. Dan and I were talking about this balance last night and how people can tolerate different things, and we likened it to Homeowner's Associations. Some people are willing to trade the freedom to paint their house purple to ensure no one else does just that. But some of these neighborhoods are drunk with power. My inlaws have to submit a form if they want to put a flowerpot in their front lawn. Some associations actually measure your grass. But as my mother-in-law says, "The neighborhood looks so nice! None of those gnomes and glass balls!" (Personally I like a gnome here and there.)
