>> WHAT IS REQUIRED to be an 'acceptable member' of Voltaire's Porch? The August 30 version of the thread header made it quite clear, bonnuss, and was supported nearly unanimously by the thread. This is a safe house where friends of Voltaire can meet to discuss any topic that tickles their fancy. If you're not a friend of Voltaire's, you're on the wrong thread. If you prefer stabbing folks to tickling them, you're on the wrong thread. If you prefer obscenity and confrontation to polite discourse, you're on the wrong thread. Porchers are here to discuss investments and have a good time. If you've got a different agenda, we can respect that, but please start your own thread... uf

PS: Dealer: you might want to establish 'rules of conduct' in the new moderated version of Voltaire's Porch ... possibly including gender, sexual affiliation, religious preferences, investing parameters (bull? bear?) etc, etc. Being a 'friend of Voltaire's' obviously could use a little more definition. Good luck to ya folks. 'b-i-a' ###

How about a book on "Cyberspace Etiquette". don't ya have a friend you can practice on......for gosh sakes. Why out of thousands of people you are the only one that does not get it. love, dealie
