then he has so much crap there he doesn't have time to respond to messages that were actually addressed to him as part of a conversation

I was sparing him the pain of seeing your posts.

The quality of mercy is not strain'd,
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven
Upon the place beneath: it is twice blest;
It blesseth him that gives and him that takes:

Vitas, speak for yourself - you're full of it. Too much, lots worse, and worthless.

Vitas, Just Observing, has posted some of the most relevent information on this thread. The international news stories and links he contributes have helped vastly to improve the thread header.

The simple matter is that if I were on the computer 7/24 I'd be doing both debates and thread construction. Given my time is limited--hey, I am a real life person with real life complications, etc.--I concentrate primarily on keeping the thread's header up to date and appropriately categtorized.

The fact of the matter is that this thread has taken such a strong interest, it's grown very large and is always a Top Hot SI thread. When it was smaller I was able to do both: track the news developments and debate with many of you.

Every now and then, when I can, I'll contemporaneously join the string and embrace the debate. Please know I enjoy doing so and wish I could more often.

Just Observing? Please do keep directing my way the information you find which proves that this war should not be started at all. Thanks for your contribution.
