Unfortunately the libertarian vs. conservative thingy led to our first big blowout on FR...the Dec '98 "Night of the Long Knives"...heheh

Would you possibly have a link to that thread? Sounds intriguing.

It wasn't one thread it was an entire night of people pulling out knives and shoving them in the backs of people they had been friendly with for a long time.

Basically, a line in the sand was drawn and people lined up on one side or the other. The same thing was done over Elian and Sciavo is now being done on immigration threads and others.

FR used to be a place for exchanging ideas, lately it seems to be the place to shove them down other peoples throats.

BTW - Don't know how to get them, they're buried deep in the archives somewhere.
