Just got back in. Congrats on the triple. I think I follow some of the dynamics that obtain between various posters. But isn't it overdone some of the time? People have been accused of being mentally ill and have then been flayed mercilessly. Is that how we treat people with illnesses. People have been accused of being ignorant, stupid, etc. ... and have then been mocked. Is that how we treat our ignorant and stupid. I appreciate that there are ignorant, mean and troubled people on the internet and I see horribly offensive posts that would require a saint's patience not to repond to...but... I know less about the internet than many of you as I am relatively new to it. I am probably not understanding the anarchy or the freedom of the net. I do know, however, that there appears to be a lot more tearing apart than there is building, and I wonder... is that really our future?? There are always those that tear down. But what happened to the other side? Again, am I out of line with this? Are we just supposed to be having fun. I'm just an ordinary guy; I find these dynamics confusing. I would love to hear your opinions. Well as Pepys said: "...to bed" SOLON
