Re: uke getting hurt
1. Nobody was hurt.
2. Referring to an anonymous nonposter as an idiot in a post is not the same as an ad hominen attack between posters, IMO.
3. Your post re use of word idiot never specified it was in the OP where I suspect many readers didn't take special note of it, leaving us to wonder who called who a idiot in the process of the thread.
5. To me, and this is just me, any position based on "well, if HE wrote this it would be treated differently" is akin to "but Sally's mom let's her" - it is irrelevent speculation that devalues one's actual position/arguement
Mary I normally decline to engage in this kind of metadiscussion. You're question seemed sincerely put tho so I'm replying to the best of my ability. But I will not in turn see this be a starting point for argument; as you probably have noticed, my general policy is to walk away from what I see as pointless exchanges.
