I like the political debates - this place is not separate from RL really - we are all real, we all have real opinions about the world around us. It would be artificial (IMHO) to try to leave that behind when we come here.

However, I do think that the person who posted that particular diatribe was way way out of line. I haven't been in that particular thread, but I hope he was told to cool it. I won't resort to flaming him, although I feel as though I want to! He does not show much self control and that is not called for, no matter how much you disagree with the debate - there are more intelligent and effective ways to disagree.

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
