But we have seen too often in the world the damage that can be done by ignoring evil thinking it will go away of its own accord. CH makes a good point, although a rather pretentious one in regard to his assessment of the criticism of his behavior. A "general cease" fire would be inappropriate....

A general cease fire would suit me admirably. I will not send out any more suicide bombers. I wish you the best luck in obtaining the same commitment from all other parties. I will also consider following the advice that "a soft answer turneth away wrath." We will see how true that may be.

"like to see a general cease fire This issue, possibly this thread, should have been dead after poet's fairwell address. CH was left alone looking to JC, who had a somewhat empty stare with hands held up for lack of recourse. In spite of the over emphasized benefits of inclusion, solitude has its own theraputic aspects. Then, came some light mocking of the scenario which went relatively unnoticed. Followed by some declarations that amounted to "the fit have survived." This did not go wholy unnoticed as some lurkers, including myself, took some minor offense. This could have been viewed as a wakeup call and again the issue could have been lain to rest. But instead, sabors began rattling and momentum building to what you see today. History lesson done. That said, I would like to nix something that is bothering me. CH, Laz, yourself, and others are still using resolution type language. There is a problem here because there is at least the perception by some that Poet has suffered some devastating set backs and that this was triggered by knowing and treacherous intent. You may not see it this way but you should at least appreciate that this perception is in the mix. I don't understand how any talk of resolution can proceed without recognition, responsibility, and reparation at the foundation. 3r's cool.
