Post #: 17
A link to the message, and perhap a SHORT comment would also be nice. But, this is NOT a place to debate the referenced topic - so be nice.
I think that a fairly liberal use of this topic would be a good thing for indexing some nice messages that are otherwise doomed to be lost in the clutter. So, if you encounter a message that seems to say something of special substance, please give it a plug/reference in this topic.
New month, same old message and routine.

People - POTM forum topic, not the chat room

This forum is a place for nominations and thank you's. Anything beyond that it deemed wrong. A reply to a reply is very wrong.

Thread: Talking some sense into randman
Post #: 124, 127, 129, and more?
I haven't been following this thread very closely, but I was just thinking about what a load randman is carrying around here. Then I bumbled onto the above cited messages.
The bottom line, I think the "liberal evo" side needs to strive some for a "kinder and gentler" debate. "Talking some sense into randman" isn't very kind or gentle.
Might be a good time to make some final remarks at that topic. Thinking about closing it down.
Yes, I may well here have gone outside or beyond what is normally considered proper POTM message content. Call it admin privilege. Want to discuss it further? - Pick the topic from the list of links below.
