It just amazes me how you can take a group of mature, intelligent, educated people and put them on a discussion forum where they turn into name-calling, arguing and belittling ogres. Is it the anonymity of the Internet? Is it the inability to fully express context and meaning through the written word? Why must we fight so much? Can't we state our case and let the other guy (or gal) state his (or hers) and agree to disagree in peace?
Am I the only one who finds the arguing tiring and debilitating? Are we so free from tyranny that we can expend our energy battling each other?
Now you've made my editing finger all sore. How about some time off to let it heal?
why do you think it took the human race so long to get to where we are today
i know many will disagree with this {who would have guessed}, but this very forum represents many eclectic people who make up our society today, this forum is a reflection on the true American society
very sad isn't it?

[:D][:D]...I get along until some Euro twit slams our country. I get along until an Abert LumDUM starts offering up his effinity towards kids. I get along with about everyone except the few that most of the mature people here don't get along well with either...[;)]

When you've erased enough on a piece of paper, sometimes it's better to just throw it away and start over![^] 0 -
The fights are fun to watch, fun to bait, and fun to participate in.
I think that no-one on the forum takes any of that stuff seriously, except for maybe you, because you got burned so hard. I'm sorry that happened to you, but you should continue to try to be less sensitive to it.
You've been doing fine today.
Thanks.

I think that's where GB's popularity comes from. That's what we're here for.[}:)] 0 -
If you walk away from your computer and are still thinking about a thread ten minutes later, you're taking it way too seriously, I think. 0
