Bill doesn't stop it. Whether he should or not is strictly up to him. But he doesn't participate, at least not at the level of the worst, and that gives it less legitimacy. John, I don't know if you read these two posts. Message 19384453 Message 19384781 As long as the language is civil, it is difficult to do more. I have sent some PMs when I think things are out of hand. I will continue to. You make a good target because you do post often, and people tee off on you in ways that are beyond good manners. I don't like it, and have let some things go I should have corrected. I will take a stronger stance in the future.

I invite you to sit in my chair for a while and note the ill will some of the extreme right wingers here evidence. It's silly, self defeating, and childish, but it's definitely there. You have consistently evoked strong responses here and elsewhere because you are a master at insulting without seeming to do so. Is calling other posters silly, self-defeating, and childish going to help? C2@whome?ohnonotme.com

Well John, I suppose we will just have to agree to disagree on this one. I won't pretend that I've read every post here, in fact I've had periods where I missed quite a few weeks, however, what I have experienced is pretty much what I wrote. I won't even bother to comment about this statement. Michael, you clearly either read selectively, lack empathetic talents, or some other such low level sin.
