Yeah, yeah -- tell it to the judge... :-)

I've gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed in the moderators over there.
I know one of them personally, and one of the others tangentially, and
I never expected them to act the way they did. Cutting off an on-
ongoing thread (for no apparent reason) is no better than having no
moderator at all.

Outside of the spin zone, when a thread starts getting into
the personal insults (and someone complains) then a thread
is likely to be closed.

It doesn't matter if the insults are deserved or not.

I realize that the POA MC doesn't explain that very well,
but observing a few closed threads makes it pretty clear.
The flow seems to always go like this: a discussion goes
on for a number of posts, then there are some back-and-forth
insults (real or perceived, deserved or not), someone complains,
the thread is closed, and finally the participants complain
that the thread was closed.




The car is back at the airport. I rode my cycle over there today, on
my way to the post office. The car looks fine. Dunno if it's got any
gas in it.

That's the next pilot's worry! ;-)

I'm glad the car is back.
