Well I see you have nothing against unwarranted attacks upon me. I resent your implications and accusation. Just be sure the denominator you seek so assiduously is not the lowest and the most common. I am afraid you are trying to tyrannize what cannot be tyrranized. The relation of topics can be controlled by threat I suppose but it destroys the very freedom of discourse that would engender truth. If you want people to pay you for a forum of discussion do not cater to the mob. You will get the intelligence of discourse and understanding you deserve. Ask yourself if the Naziis of Germany were justified in controlling the press? You have stated your rationalization for controlling the posts here. So be it, Adolph. I leave this thread to its fonts of wisdom as is your wish. E. Charters

>.Anything can be rationalized. << Events in US politics may have an influence on the price of gold but our attitudes and opinions about those events do not. Thanks for directing the thread back on track.

Bob, Charters just loves to walk into the lions den and pull whisker. Well I hope after the pain ebbs you will relent and let him come back. As you know there are (reputedly) many promoters/stock touts etc hidden on SI. These people do not like the Charters of the world as it interferes with the fleecing of the flock. Normally in the give and take of posting he has stopped any obscene comments and generally his attacks against others are responses against attacks by others on him and this is acceptable as long as he does not get obscene/racist, which he does not. Using the term adolph is unwise as it has a magnified meaning that goes beyond his intent. Better he should have used the term Draco for expelling him is Draconian, as we have all (racially) forgotten all about Draco. I think he got carried away. Let this one escape the lions den, there is a precedent. Bill
