Our Queen Mother passed away this morning - #reply-17264651 .... earlier i had in mind a smart-ass post to Solon in which i would opine that it was time for us to get tough with atheists as clearly they are not adhering to the One True Right Only Way of agnosticism, going around as they are pretending to know what they cannot possibly know, being as fully religious as any other whacko out there .... but it all seems so trite now, and for sure somebody has posted the same thought in the same words somewhere previously, so to evade accusations of plagiarism i'll pass until the next blessing of the three-beer buzz

PMs - i don't like em in general ... feels sneaky or something ... plus there is an implied urgency in need for response, i hate that

E and X - i've enjoyed many a post from both of you ... sure wish you wouldn't squabble ... well, unless you enjoy that, hey it's a big world

Solon - i haven't forgotten your excellent post on the tariff thing - #reply-17263058 ... it just wasn't a good friday thing maybe, later i'll record it for posterity over on FOs vs Cuddlies, got comments on several points too, off now for brunch with neighbours .... cheers, all

[edit] - E, i thought the 'is nothing sacred' joke was actually pretty funny, it left me thinking as well, which is more than can be said for most jokes .... but i can't find it in a hurry, way too many hits for 'sacred' on this thread, lol ... cháu

I think it is too easy to say you have such pm's when you do not
especially when ideas about what is threatening clearly differ
perhaps you have a pm and consider it threatening when the other person had a totally different interpretation of the communication
that is, imo, what the TOU are for, and why we have SI Jeff
after you make the claim you have exposed the other person, who could be innocent, to the vise of "Agree to expose your private communications, or be considered guilty"
I don't happen to think that is a very good situation, do you?
If you do think that is a good situation then I do not agree with you. It is not an aspersion on you that I do not agree with you.
