Colibri, it’s unusual for me to take up an argument with you, as I’m usually in agreement with you on most issues, but it appears that the assigned moderator of this very forum disagrees with you:
Ruminating further on this general topic, I wish we had more moderators like Bone, which in a way is a strange thing for me to say, since we politically disagree on almost everything – to the point of being almost polar opposites. But Bone has worked hard since becoming a mod both to ensure fair and reasonable moderation and discussions and to clarify many of the rules and try to ensure consistency without being either heavy-handed or condescending. It’s appreciated. By “condescending” I mean recognizing that most posters here are mature adults and don’t need to be addressed like a class of fifth-graders (without resorting to repetitive invectives like “I hope that’s clear”). That latter point about JC has been brought up before, I’m not the first one to note it.
