"Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence."  Albert Einstein

"Nobody can make you feel bad without your consent" - Eleanor Roosevelt

LFF, yes that quote is so true which is why I rather not waste time talking about people unless they are politicians making bad choices for our future.

Well, let the "nicey nice" site folks have it their way; let us take a cue from the lesson of censorship.
Comment by Apposite on February 6, 2011 at 1:21am
Yes, Steve very much agreed, --- and I told them that as well. One may feel very right on what is right but in order to have a relaxed feeling by the contributors you have to accept the widest field of contributions whether these people are nice or not, civil or uncivil. The field will cull itself naturally without artificially imposed strictures.

By the way, why is everybody coming over here again? (I see that as a good thing)
