John P. I think that Steve Shaw in his post after yours deserves a vote of thanks for exactly encapsulating your points. I really enjoyed this bit of sarcasm.

"(c) because you don't like to see prejudice and bigotry hold sway in such a way that it brings the forum into disrepute."

So obviously the thing to do is to call people names and "prod and rib" for the same reactions over and over so that to many, the "prejudice and bigotry" are the major features of the forum.

Johnathon Swift himself could not have said it better.
