Re: Interested in a moderated theory forum?

Thanks TenKMan. I don't feel controlled -- afterall, I kept at it in spite of irresponsible responses for longer than I most would, don't you think? It is a cost/benefit thing -- if, at some point, I anticipate the benefit of entering into a discussion in this forum again to be worth the costs, I'll do it. I'm rather logical that way and not so inclined to emotional outbursts like H.D. in politics or B.B. on this list. Men can be so emotional sometimes! smiles. --dawn
P.S. If relational theorists really could trace all of their opinions and religious zeal back to mathematics, I would think they would, wouldn't you? But when they have no logical argument, what can those poor guys do but resort to insults?
