All, putting a "policy" in the FAQ is not a structural change in a cyber organization, as you must realize. In this organization, a change in how the operating system of the forum works is the only way to solve the problems of "dysfunctionality" to which you refer. I hope I can persuade you that structural changes are needed.

The change Jon is refering to was not enough to solve the problems which are ongoing in interaction which are related to fears about providing operational feedback, reluctance to stand behind unpopular views, human misunderstandings, the tendency people have to attack unpopular views with tangential reasoning, and "bad days."

Our bright people could address these problems effectively, I believe. harpgirl
