[ExI] shining example

[spike at rainier66.com]

Last Sunday somebody asked me a question and I said I didn't want to answer it because the last time I said what I really thought on that subject I almost got kicked off the list, I was told by you that wouldn't happen this time and encouraged to say what I really thought

 

 

Not at all.

 

The suggestion was made that we do that for a day.  It extended to about a week.  We have had enough.  You said your piece.

 

I propose resetting your moderate flag to off, and return to our regularly-scheduled programming, with the understanding that John, we get it: you don’t care for the current POTUS, whose name escapes me.  You don’t need to keep on and on and on with the evangelism or the campaigning.

Last Sunday somebody asked me a question and I said I didn't want to answer it because the last time I said what I really thought on that subject I almost got kicked off the list, I was told by you that wouldn't happen this time and encouraged to say what I really thought, but now it looks like exactly what I feared would happen did in fact happen. Am I to understand that from now on I must sit at the children's table and everything I write on any subject must first get an OK from moderation, aka you?

Our moderation system isn’t working right.  I am trying to get that fixed.

Speaking of jarring change, I don't know if anyone will read this because I'm not sure if I'm still allowed to post to the list but you really should watch not just The Shining but every Stanley Kubrick movie, they range from very good to superb, he is by far my favorite director.
