This was coloured Brown.

As for "And then they came for me," you're right that it is applicable to PEL's, but it also applies to a much wider spectrum of situations. It gives great insight to German history, and it applies in a very frightening way to the USA Patriot Act and the "Homeland Security" legislation. It is certainly appropriate for it to be on your thread listing PEL links, but it will not be included in the PEL thread grouping. That decision is final.

I think Joe that you have rather missed off of your list a rather important relevance that this particular thread has.

But Jeri said, only in black and white.

The thread that was grouped with PELs and was unlinked - well I did the un-link - it was fairly obvious to me that, while that thread could be related to PELs, it was also related to other issues going on. I watched that thread and the Help Forum (correcting mistakes is the reason it exists). Not one word. I'm just guessing, but I'd bet Joe never got a PM about it either. This silence led me to believe the un-linking was the right thing to do. The thread is now back in the group.

??? Is it re-linked or is un-linked again?
And earlier (also in brown)

One of the beauties of this place is its spontaneity, so I want to be careful not to exercise too much control
-Joe Offer-

Perhaps those who thought that they had read this thread can go back and see what (brown) additions have been made?

Joe can you please decide if you are going to confine your personal views to the forum, as one of the lads, where they are not the FINAL word, or to your brown comments non-negotiable and intrusive 'Big Brother' role made after the event?

I don't think that you can really expect us to accept that you can have it both ways. Or do you?

Sounds like manipulation to me, a spoiled kid running to Mommy when Daddy's decision is unsatisfactory. I talked with Jeri about this, and we are in agreement. The decision is final, and the thread has been removed from the PEL group. The consensus in the thread in question was that it should not be included in the PEL group. The only dissenting voice was that of Shambles.
I put my personal views in regular messages. The brown comments are official.
