Is Aligyrl that revoltingly hideous creature I met at the Cheesecake Factory about five years ago? If so, I am glad she is on the other side. I would have written a song about her by now but did not want to become physically ill.<P.

Don't worry, JimRob, I'll never be turned to the dark side. (Even if you remove a song now and then.) :)

If she is the same person I spoke with at the MFJ, that is not true.

It's like a family. Is there anyone who hasn't butted heads with their wife, mom, brother etc?

Most of the time when JR hears from me it's because I'm upset about something. We place value on the priority people in our lives hence what they say, do and think is important to us.

That's why the AFs act like they do. They're like scorned children who've had a falling out with their family, FR was THAT much of a factor in their lives.

I'm starting to think that a yearly fee is the way to go. It would put an end to all of these mystery people (on various sides of various issues) just coming and going as they please.

Or maybe a system where after such and such date, all new accounts will have to register and pay .... or at least register and provide more than an email addy. After a while the disrputors, AFs, Chinese, Islamists, and pinkos would start to fall off.

The strife in the forum over the last year is worse than ever. I'm starting to think we can't continue to let people come and go at will anymore.
