You will be greatly missed!

I want to take a moment to thank you for all your hard work, many posts and patient response to my requests for translations and explanations. You are ever kind!

You, and the others like you, are National Treasures and I appreciate you.

There is obviously a lot of politics going on behind the scenes that I am not privy to. I have read the "offending" post, and while it may have showed a lack of judgement, I am surprised at the level of condemnation being heaped upon SP2BF. She has been with this thread from the start with many, MANY valuable contributions. As far as I can remember, SP2BF has never done anything wrong to anyone here on the TM.

IMHO, the level of chastisment was way too strong. I don't know what's going on around here, but I don't like it one bit. Ruth was right, we are eating ourselves. Look how many regular contributors to the TM have been driven off the thread lately. I don't know if it is stress or whether we have some agent provacateurs around here. I suspect it could be both.
