Snip the rest.

Guys you gotta stop. It after four days on nothing this what I have to look
for. I myself had a rocky start and had to apologize when I realized what
was going on. Just drop it all you.

Goodie!
Maybe it's those Rocket Skates I ordered from the ACME company!
The last pair backfired and almost blew my legs halfway to my Duodenum.
But I'll get that pesky Road Runner yet.

All threads involving religion, the Masons, free speech, etc.
drekcetera, will end now. Enough already!

What is so hard about ending a thread, people? It's very simple.
Don't post another message about it!

'Nuff said? I hope so. But lately, it seems a difficult concept to
grasp...

*sigh* Sometimes they take on a life of their own. Despite the fact that
I could (and in some respects should) dispute much of Alexia's most recent
post...

I won't. I'm not going to get into this again. Alexia, if you want, take
a look at recent logs under the posting subject of "Black Lodge" which
would essentially contain what my response would be. Otherwise, let it
die. I'm tired of it.

However, I do think that my recent IEs and Religion, if it can be tightly
controlled by the posters, is a legitimate SR topic since if everyone
behaves themselves, we won't be talking about beliefs. Only suppositions
and random thoughts. If it goes beyond that, I'll kill it myself.

Well, the threads are either being revived like Lazarus (I think the "Next
Enemy?" thread was dead well over a week ago, then Bamb! It pops up again)
or are morphing into something else. We all know that just because a
subject header says one thing the subject of the text may be something
totally different. I.e., the recent IEs and Religion postings, which
started as something else, but is now a minor topic that has been well
behaved so far, despite it's inflammatory possibilities. And until it
sparks up, I say we either leave it alone or let it die like any other
common thread does.

Ooops, sorry. I have been trying to remain OnT when I reply, or at least
steer things that aways.

For some reason, the "threads" list that you give as an example must have hit
a bunch of sensitive spots in people.

Interesting...
