Yup. I stay away from most of the debates here because I've decided most don't really contribute to my sobriety, such as it is. They just play to my already oversized ego, and engender resentments. That's just how it is for me, not a criticism of anyone else, by the way. But I do think they'd be more productive if people started with the assumption that nothing is intentionally meant to offend. Too many of the posts I've read seem consist of volleys in which people expressing outrage or dismay that their posts were read in the most challenging or offensive way possible.

That's just a wordy way of saying I like your ground rules, Equus.
