Relax Jack,

The half life of a thread like this is really quite long. I tuned into this thread a week ago and found it a great place. The link to all the comments on grammar was, for me, eye opening....something beond Strunk and White.... I slipped a reference to that site onto the 'Metaphysics' thread in the 'Coffee Shop' area....where we had briefly had a discussion of the 'pronoun' problem in web communication.

I believe that if we persevere here. We will set the trends. Who else cares? We just need to converse, to raise issues, and to deal with them. Its a barren world out there. Those who respectfully set precedence can truly assist in making etiquette.

Now I know there is a difference between freedom of speech and proper and polite discussion. I do not wish to limit any ones freedom of speech. But 'Say what you wish sor but say it as a gentleman or gentlewoman.'

....anyway Jack ....the direction of my thoughts are beyond my particular time frame. I believe you will understand what I am getting at... If you think I'm full of s??t, well I understand that too.

I've bookmarked the thread and will be back.

regards
