'Censorship' ...

<< To my pal Dmitry, who reads this thread religiously ... "Censorship of anything, at any time, in any place, on whatever pretense, has always been and always be the last resort of the boob and the bigot." >>

With all due respect to a gifted Nobel laureate in literature, fortunately the capability to 'ban' SI members is available to SI board founders, moderators, emcees, and SI Admins. Just as fortunately, my personal observation is that OUR Admins use the capability judiciously but when called for, and site bans are relatively rare. Hats off to greg for exercising his privilege to create this alternative 'generally unmoderated' alternative board for SI site discussion as a reasonably safe haven for SI malcontents seeking a forum to express their views if another avenue is closed to them.
