I'd like to clear something up.

Karen got her knuckles rapped in public by YYB. When that's happened before to a member of the sisterhood here, the others invariably jump to her support with a public rebuke to the rapper. He was just saying, that kind of support was conspicuous by its absence in this instance.

YYB changed the name of this thread all by herself with no help from anyone else. It was changed to something rather silly and meaningless (unless one collects beanie babies) and unprovocative. Not even the header was changed, have you noticed?

Karen questioned YYB and asked for an explanation. YYB answered. Karen made a comment which had an edge to it, IMO. YYB made a response with had a sharper edge to it, IMO. It is their disagreement. Karen made a decision, posted the reasons publicly and quite clearly. You are overlooking them, as is Greg.

Karen doesn't "jump" in for other people.
She has many times mentioned this. I am sure she could not expect, what she does not think is "right". When people do not believe in interfering in the causes of others, others do not interfere in their causes. However, if she WANTED me to, I would. But I would need to know SHE wanted me to, and not little Greg. Because time and time again Karen has posted and Pm'ed about why she doesn't interfere.

Sometimes a stupid simplistic interpretation of events, just stupid simplistic interpretation.
