Stilly River Sage, I've reflected a little on your cri de coeur of 10.35. I found it quite instructive that, since your post, there have been several hectoring posts from Keith, absolutely typical of the man who follows people around threads limpet-like, and a post from pete who claims that homosexuality is a choice. You are silent on these things yet you accuse Musket, who rarely starts threads that endure, of stalking. As I have told you in PMs, I am not a fan of sweary insults (I am trying very hard these days...) and I cringe when those who might be seen as my natural allies indulge in such. I'm not bothered that they know that's what I think, either. On the whole, Musket is on the right side of things, the side that respects humanity's right to exist as flawed human beings and not to have to conform to the diktats of deluded religious moralisers or of those like Akenaton and Keith who are afflicted with medieval prejudices. There is room on this planet for those canny types who fret about outcomes AND for those who rage against wrong-headedness regardless. There's more to life than keeping things under wraps in the cause of keeping the forum sweet. Though you mods could try harder apropos of stamping on bigotry, even if it comes from from people you like (I was called a Jew-hater by one such, and you did nothing...). You need to think about that before you attack people who have right on their side even though they might throw tactical considerations out of the window at times.
