I think that OBL is intelligent, tall, charismatic and clearly has a way with the babes. Jorj, I've always known that your brain works. Except when you get into conspiracy theories, of course. There was very clear ridiculing by the anti-coward crowd on more than one occasion. As I recall, there were several hundred posts the day the thread discussed the cowardice thing. I know I was a good hundred posts behind all day trying to catch up so I could have missed something. My sense was that the give and take was typically rough on both sides but short of ridicule. There are way too many posts for me to go back and look--it was hard enough to read it the first time--but if you have a recollection of anyone ridiculing someone for labeling Osama a coward, maybe you could suggest a name or a couple of keywords so I can research it or just remind me of it. I recall a discussion of ridicule, which I just found, but I can't find the ridicule that started it. I recall the Pixie ridicule, but nothing about calling Osama a coward. The ridicule that I noticed occurred on Hall of Shame. I thought that was outside our usual parameters for rough play. Karen
