| At certain moments, always unforseen, I become happy... I look at the strangers near as if I had known them all my life... everything fills me with affection... It may be an hour before the mood passes, but lately I seem to understand that I enter upon it the moment I cease to hate. 
 - William Butler Yeats
 
 moderation is arbitrary and capricious- as it is on all moderated threads
 only on this one
 I say it up front :-)
 so you know
 
 I am not the govenrment or your mother- if you are concerned about your freedom of speech, go stand on a streetcorner, or go talk to your mom.  As I keep telling people, the constitutional prohibitions against the abridgement of free speech apply to the government. If you think you have to associate with people that you do not like, because of the constitution, you didn't read the part about free association.  Before you go talk to your mom, you might want to read about that- because mom doesn't HAVE to talk to you either- so be careful out there.
