Though I have made this clear in the past, I am now adding it here ... the posting of personal information is an absolute no-no. I don't care how easy it is to find on the net, it will not be posted here.

PMs are PRIVATE. Period. They are not to be posted in the forum. If you're having a problem with another member via PM, discuss it in private with a mod or admin

Barry: “...they’re now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because, you know, the Cold War’s been over for 20 years.”

Is there a rule, along the lines of Godwin's Law, that if one participant in an argument accuses the other participant of being jealous, then he has lost the argument? If not, there should be.

Where's the rule on WISHING for RIPs?
"Racist" is a toolword. You must know that.
Any objective examination of the effect of "them" has to lead you to the behavior and ideology that is now termed, "racist."

Refute if you can.
