I guess I am a reader. I have been a reader for some time, and just started posting. What I really like here is the intellectual level of the dialog, no profanity, name, calling, etc, that I have seen on other forums.
*Gulp*
Just remember hon...there are idiots everywhere. Don't hold it against us when you see some pop up here. This really is a great place to be. Welcome!
Stick around long enough, and you'll see that this place really shines in a crisis. That's when real experts start coming out of the woodwork. When planes crash, pilots and mechanics will chime in left and right. I remember events from the EP-3 to the Columbia to the early days of Afghanistan, (and now 'Rathergate') where people from every range of expertise would step up and contribute.
On a day to day basis, FR is interesting and entertaining. When something big happens, the first thing I think is 'Man, I can't wait to get home and see what's going on at FR'.
(Anyway, you probably don't want to self apply the name 'troll'. Trolls are liberal infiltrators who create dummy accounts so they can be disruptive.)

Yes. I have posted regularly to only one other forum, newsmax, and I stopped posting there when they closed it down 2 years ago. I lurked here for quite a while, (even after I registered) before I started posting. Great bunch of folks posting here.
We also use punctuation and capitals and other neat kinds of grammar.
Well we had a newbee the other night that got challenged and immediately started doing that.... tried to send a freepmail expressing my displeasure but she/he was already gone.....the mods were that quick.
So welcome!
Ya haven't been here long enough! Stick around for a while and post up-dates to your evaluation :o)
