This Is Flame
Yes, but as a supporter of Gary I feel it has been beat to death and should be allowed to heal.
I found no fault with Robert's comments but it does point out the difficulty of moderating and remaining a member of the community. There has been some converstaion regarding alter-egos and the difficulty of keeping them seperate.
Frankly, I think it is impossible to freely participate and moderate without crossing some feelings. It works out okay for me because I have already said all I have to say on any controversial subject and I have no desire to contribute more vitriol.
Neither do I have to watch keeping my poster persona seperate since I am the same crotchety bastard either way but I can keep my mouth shut at the right times, usually.
