You raise an interesting question. The thread may have been moved purely for political motives. I'll have to ponder what gain there was in moving it, but I'm sure it was diabolical.

Just so. There must be method to the manipulations of the moderators. How else can one explain their having moved my thread on the ethics of plucking nasal hair to off topic?. Perhaps the incisions of these beatniks are not so random after all.

OK, let's just kiss and make up (um...figuratively speaking of course).

Us, dear. grin

Though I concede I'm a bit missing in action these days. Hopefully not anymore as one of the things that has been keeping me busy (new house) is now accomplished.

I need to get acquainted with sanity.

Rantings, rantings and more rantings. Seriously.

baden511, if you have a problem with the admins or moderators then I suggest you campaign to have someone more awesome take their place.

I know this one guy, his name's Yahadreas, and he'd make an excellent choice, if I do say so myself.

I am awesome.

We are moderators we decide who is awesome and who is not. Actually, Paul decides that, than PB, Hyena, Incision and Unenlightened decide, than Caldwell, Bobard, Benkei, myself and other red names decide. That is the chain of causality and agency of awesomeness. You, you are decided upon. In fact only Paul is awesome because he decided so himself. He is self caused awesome. The rest of us are merely awesome emanating down, relative to Paul, right down to the ones that can't decide about awesomenessvat all.
