And I completely concur--there were 8 new NG's, and yet one is getting all the
attention.  If people weren't pointing at it, or highlighting it, or yapping
about it, nobody would have noticed it.  There is no elephant in the
livingroom--all this hoopla is what is creating the elephant.

Leave it alone.  See what happens.

Eh, I'm tired, I have a cold, and I'm cranky.  The only good news is that I
almost have a 57 lvl Ranger in EQ and I've watched 8 eps of West Wing today (1)

And with that, I'm off to find a cupcake.

1- Thus alluding to the plain and simple truth that LIFE GOES ON, PEOPLE!  Get
over it.

That right Dave, only one group us getting attention - nobody asked people their
opinions or requested the other seven.

'Leave it alone/Life goes on/get over it.' - you libs (ie your West Wing
marathon clues me in on this) really like to take this position when you've
gotten what you want, otherwise you'd be crying how unfair and what an uncaring,
hateful place LUGNET is for not creating a 'safe space'...  You guys don't get
over it when you don't get what you want, but when you get what you want, you
want eveyone else to just live with it.
Hypocrites.

Well, if Todd didn't implement the group, and there was an uproar about that,
I'd chime in and say *exactly* the same thing.  But you don't know that about
me.(1)  It's Todd's backyard--if he says that the group gets added, the decision
is made and it's time to see what happens.  Hence stop yammering about it.

It's much like the quote from an unmentioned show--"The avalanche has
started--it's too late for the pebbles to vote..."

Who isn't just a liberal Canadian who likes The West Wing, he's a *socialist*
Canadian--*Gasp!*

1- Note the almost inherent dichotomy--check out my e-mail address.  I don't
believe there's a dichotomy, but many others can't beleive that I have my
beliefs and also went to Redeemer for 4ish years.  Ahh, like a woman, I'm a
mystery...
