John: "SI Jail" sounds OK to me... Should that action be kept 'secret' from the rest of us? Doesn't sound right to me... However, the SI Jail postings (page) should only be posted-to by SI Management and NOT be opened-up to be a 'circus'. If we wonder what ever happened to so & so, we could always checkout the SI Jail... Shall we have an 'SI Hospital' too? <grin - kidding> <font color=red> Happy Holidays to you, your family, and to SI. (color this Red) </font> Thank you, Joe ps, Anything new on the way we 'View Replies'? Joe

John, It is all about taking responsibility for one's own actions. If I were to go too far then who's fault is it that I would end up in SI Jail? I don't think we have too really go that far concerning information posted, just the name, the offense, the time period of suspension. I had thought that the number of previous suspensions would be helpful but after a lot of thought I don't think it is needed because I feel sure that those who would have multiple suspensions would be subject to permamant release anyway and that would be covered under Offense (multiple suspensions), and Time period (permamant). There is an old saying, don't do the crime if you can't do the time so those that feel against this because they wouldn't want their names posted, sorry but it is your own fault if you end up listed. I do believe however, that at least one warning should be given before listing to SI Jail as we all can have a bad day, or that one poster who pushes us over the line and just a wakeup call is all that is needed to get us back on the straight path. I still believe it is a good idea and if I transgress, post my name!! wb
