I perssonally dont think its appropriate to talk about a thread where one is banned from, on another thread. Since one can't talk about it on the same thread, that means one is bound to silence forever. I fail to see why. The action was public, why shouldn't I comment? Banned lists are public too. If I think a certain thread has a large number of names belonging to non-kooks, quite reasonable people in fact, who all just happen to be on one side of the political fence. it certainly seems fair play to comment about it. Readers can check the list and judge for themselves.

Kumar If you want to read posts on View From Center many of them are copied and pasted on some other threads but not to share interesting facts, rather to denigrate of PUT DOWN the poster. This is a practice I find very objectionable,albeit childish. Look at the number of book marks for various threads to find out how successful they are. Some certainly super cede others. I find this thread one of the more contentious but very interesting ones with a lot of sharing of other's thoughts,positions and more often than not,substantiated with sources of origin..Where at least one can be aware of biases... Except I have a hard time calling the NYT liberal when I had that paper daily while working in New York. Quite frankly I come here to learn.. And although I can disagree with many who post here I do not copy,paste and carry it to another thread to poke fun at the poster.
