Hat: admin thinking cap. Please do not discuss the original post on this thread on-list. I consider the original post probably doesn't meet list guidelines *BUT* does a service to list members who are interested (as I am), and may not do too much harm as long as it does not result in a wave of follow on "here are links to my just cause", of which there are a very vast number (both just causes & links to them). . It's possible admins may comment further on this, one way or t'other, but maybe not. ___ Tamas' follow on comment was completely outside list guidelines. (Sorry Tam= as). Removes hat. ___________________ Personal comment only: Carries no official weight: I personally find this subject of interest and the page linked to is an extremely informative one. However, the subject as a whole is "political" and seems to me to fall outside list guidelines. The issue is not whether any of the groups involved is right or felt to be in the right but that subjects of this sort have been specifically excluded from the list both because there are many places where discussion is welcome and because it has proven impossible time after time after time, in this forum and 98.696 % of all others, to hold reasoned, intelligent polite discussions for more than about 2.71828 ... iterations before flaming mayhem abuse and general hilarity ensue. And then you wake Bob up, and we're off. So, best avoided. Post the special interest links to OT if the cause seems good enough if you must. Realise you may get in trouble for doing so. A comment that discussion is not in order may be in order. Please do not use this as a new way to annoy people, admins (who are usually people as well), or show how smart you are. You know who you are :-). (Did I say that?). Russell _______________ This is why we don't do this here: My slightly edited version of a follow on post. I'm happy to discuss it off= list On 8 June 2013 08:44, Just some guy y'know wrote: ~~~~~~=3D > That is quite something! I wish people in some-place were that brave!
