[Mind-numbed Robot]

I am reminded of when I first found FR. There was much disention among the ranks as to who would run the show, Jim Robinson or Don Morgan, Mojo, and a bunch of others. There were the same complaints being made now about censorship, etc., back then. That little dust up spawned Lucianne.com and some others. Well, I don't suppose that you need to be reminded that Jim Robinson still runs the show here, and as a result, FR is continually outgrowing itself while the spin offs aren't doing too well.

Since some of you are no longer making contributions to the intellectual exchange here, instead just complaining about what FR is, or has become as you say, why don't you simply do as the earlier malcontents did and go do your own thing elsewhere?

I'm generally doing that.

As far as the 'intellectual exchange'... I still enjoy the threads on the unified theory or Nietzche's last thoughts. So... I'm part of that.

If you are confusing 'intellectual exchange' with the so-called political discourse slash humor, I did make a significant contribution yesterday on a thread dealing with Heraldo and FNC. Needless to say, the thread disappeared.

That little dust up spawned Lucianne.com and some others.

Actually, I think it was the other way around, if you know what I mean. Start a fight here to try to drive up the hits at your own site. Is Lucy.com still around?

You forget that prior to leaving in a huff, the coven were playing their power games with the benign approval of the FR-PTB. -- To my mind, much the same game is being played now, and some of the present authoritarian crowd may even be the same players.

I wish someone would/could say it isn't so, with a explanation of why it sure looks that way.

Instead of mind-numbing 'love it or leave' suggestions.
