** OT ** Brian: Re: "As an aside, many dictators around the world who suppress speech also have a "second-life" so to speak, sponsoring orphanages and the such to look good in the public eye."

Oh, is this some implication posted in my direction? Maybe not. But maybe you don't know when to quit when you are behind. Unbelievable. Justa the "Nazi"; Justa the "war criminal"; now Justa the "dictator" hiding behind good deeds in life while his real motivation is to suppress free speech on some internet forum?

Re: "Your spending time to help others is noble; no question about that. Your silencing others is not."

I have not silenced anyone. You are free to post whatever you want to post on SI so long as abide by the terms of use. A moderated thread is allowed on SI. If you can't deal with it, then you don't have to participate. If you don't like the concept of a moderated thread, talk to the management. But don't personally attack me because you don't like the idea.

I have not attacked you at all. I have exercised restraint. Now let's see if you can exercise some free speech restraint for once in my direction.
