You are saying the "loyalty oath" was tongue in cheek?
I am overjoyed to hear that. I was about to post a message on my home page to the effect that "I am no longer posting."
Your comments on this thread, and a comment just made on another thread asking, "Since when did Freerepublic have an intelligent science community?" were just too much for this reasonably intelligent (on a good day) scientist.
Thank you for the clarification.
Doesn't smack of tongue in cheek to you? *sigh*
I'd settle for a cease and desist in spamming.
