No, not at all, but I keep hearing similar ways to reason around a problem.
It's the old, I was elected so I can do anything I want to, and it's justified
because you voted me in.  So saying something like "If you still don't like how
the situation was handled...", that doesn't really fly with me.  It doesn't end
arguements, it only starts them with me.

I agree, you're right, they take care of themselves.  That's why I get upset
when it's not allowed to happen on it's own.  To the best of my knowlegde you
never stopped a thread for being off topic.

I'd have to look them over again.  I don't recall being rude.  If I did get rude
it would have been a result of being aggrivated by not being allowed to discuss
the matter in an open forum.
