There had been a recent Thread that had denegrated into a propagation of ill will.

I had recently made a post suggesting that the thread needed to "go away" and since the Moderators of this Board do not condone censorship and will not lock/delete threads (except under extreme circumstances), I suggested that the thread be voluntarily "disected" by the individual contributors removing their individual posts.

After making the aforementioned post I went back and deleted my INITIAL post (the one that started it all :rolleyes: ). Much to my surprise, I inadvertently deleted the entire thread. I honestly didn't know that deleting the intial post takes out the whole thread (but I guess it makes sense). Wow! . . . to yield such "power" :-)
Anyway, I want to apologize to all whose posts I accidentally "tossed" (it was NOT my intention). I also would like it known that what I had done was a voluntary action and I was NOT coerced by anyone to do so.

That being said, part of me is somewhat happy that it happened this way . . .


. . . Let's Move On . .

Thanks Cliff,
I just got bummed 'cause I was typing a responce when it got dumped and was using spell check and everything.... :( I'm also very much against censorship of any kind... but an honest mistake is an honest mistake. I actually like threads like that, especially here, where we are mostly adults and "work through" aggreements and disagreements the way we do. It's good internet.
