I'm pulling chocks tomorrow. Writing the opus thread now.
Don't go Poohbah. Just don't donate when they fire up the FReepathon machine tomorrow. Hit 'em in the billfold.
Ping me to it, will ya, if I'm still here...

If I don't wind up doing it, I'll be truly sorry to see you go.
Despite all the crap you take, you are often a lone voice for sanity on emotional threads, and not just the Terri threads, either.
I'm proud to know you, Pooh.
"Yes. I am saying that those who would view the results of any autopsy as vindication of Michael Schiavo do not understand the limitations of such a study."

Limitations? Oh brother, here it comes...

Noooooo....Come back, Shane! Come back!
I'm begging you...
I vote nay to that. FR is going through a crazy period, but I think it will settle back to normal in the near future.

As someone who has disagreed with you on several issues in the past, especially this one, I must ask you to reconsider. Take a bit of a hiatus until the Schiavo thing blows over, but don't pack it in.
The worst thing that could happen to FR is for it to become an "echo chamber". Many of your opinions are in the minority around here, but you are usually able to convey them eloquently and stick to your guns regardless. Most of the other FR "devil's advocates" cannot say the same. Plus, I've always enjoyed reading your posts on military and foreign affairs issues.
Anyhow, I notice I'm not the first to ask you to stay. At least consider what we have to say. If not, best of luck in the future.
I enjoy reading your posts. I hope you will change your mind.
