Hi all: I have been nominated by several person here and I thanks them a lot, but I have many doubts about the feasibility -for me -of becoming moderator if ever I get enough votes. As I told in my declaration of principles when I was a candidate the first time, I am not a man inclined to punish and reacting, short of a guy aiming me with a pistol. At the same time the events of this year has been enough to show me beyond doubt that in the average this group sustain a lot tougher rules and visions than me. I cannot be a moderator if I am not willing to moderate nothing or in any case less than most people want to be moderated. I cannot moderate if I hardly see and feel something or anybody capable of disturbing me because his words, concepts or even insults. Probably this a matter of age: I am 49 years old, surely one of the oldest guys here. Age, if you are not fully stupid, tends to weaken the resolution to take this or that path. It is just you know there are good reasons for anything, so how you can blame this or that way. Too many reason not do anything, too many experiences to accepts almost everything. I do not believe this "let it be philosophy" would be very popular here and so the only result should be attacks on me because I did not punish Mr.XXXX after his broadside about Mr YYYY. So, after this long rexplnation that people that thought in my name deserve, let me say "no, I am not the man needed here". Salute to all Fernando
