Just one major point here:
I don't agree with what Todd is doing or why he is doing it for reasons stated
previously. It should also be kept in mind that this thread began with the
use of certain language on RTL and NOT on Lugnet -- I think all of us allowed
the subject to slop over as it concerns Lugnet -- but that was not the
original subject. Moreover I already stated the following in my first post in
this thread:
"And it IS your sandbox, Todd. No complaints from me about your stated
policies, not since our first email exchange on the subject."
For what its worth, I think I have fairly informed opinion on the subject and
use of English -- it was my major at UC Berkeley and I did manage to graduate
with honors and so on. But I am not hugely interested in $100 words or
appeals to authority. The point is that I am not a yahoo, and that I still
think words are just words, and that all of us has the ability to skip over
objectionable posts. That last bit seems like enough power to appease even the
most sensitive eyes to me.
'Nuff said.
