Much of the banter here and correspondingly on RGCC seem to be flames over (minor?) editorial issues steeped in a series of long-but-not-forgotten issues. Much of this is now incomprehensible to someone just joining this communitee of uniformly interesting and informed thinkers. But the animosity level is very high - and to the extent a moderator can quell this by their actions and statements then I think we should support such a person. Inclusive tolerance of diverse opinions could not hurt in calming the waters it seems...both here and in any political activity. Again, Mr. Tueschen (or some other person of similar bent) would be my choice for moderator. Who would you suggest and why? Best regards, Bob Green
