Well, I do not say this much, but thank you for the heads-up, though I suspected
that something was indeed wrong in here. I am glad that it was not me being
stopped, though. I have never said anything wrong in here...at least, when I
was talking in here recently....which brings me to this question, why has my
post in response to Jeff Whatever his name is, the guy replacing Brad Justus,
not been on here? Is it also because of the same problem or is it that some
special interests in here actually hate me? If it is the latter, then that is
really immature. I told the truth of what was wrong and if you hate it, then
too bad. It was like I saw in school once on a poster that said, "Whatever is
popular is not always right, whatever is right is not always popular." Well, I
would also like some updates as to that situation, too. Thank you.
