i think my plan going forward is to not get in arguments. i will just state my views and if others want to sound off, so be it. that's the plan at least. whether i am capable of pulling that off is another story. also i think i will try to limit my posting to the morning as i wait for my modafinil to kick in.

and though i run the risk of people complaining that i think i know everything, i should eliminate the risk of people complaining that i always have to have the last word.

i will try to answer questions if posed to me (whether by name or in substance) in good faith.

I questioned, in the super ignore thread, jokingly, if you had super ignored us because I had not seen you posting for a bit. (I missed all the drama leading up to this thread.) I'm glad to see you're here with us again. I do not agree with everything you've posted, and have pushed back on several of your posts, but, I do appreciate your pov, and thought you put into your posts. Glad you're back!

Speaking for myself, if I'm responding to an 8 point post, I'm not going to respond to point 2 unless I've read the entire post and made sure the point I'm thinking of making is not already covered in points 3 through 8.

interesting. that isnt how i think of things. kind of wish that had been pointed out to me earlier (to be clear, this isn't blaming anyone nor is it sarcastic or passive/aggressive). sometimes i add a couple of numbered points that dont directly address the issue but relates to it, kind of like in textbooks or casebooks where the authors provide "more reading for those interested." maybe i should skip those. i didnt think people would read that way.

Fwiw, I'm not responding to any post until I've read it through, numbered or not, and on the rare occasions I'm making a serious response, I'll likely do some research.
 
We must continue to honor the board decorum and condemn all the government and pundit vitriol.
:cool:
