 Yes, I run things with a tighter hand than Rich does. I am the pagan
 priest in residence, Rich the catholic priest ;-) we don't always see things
 eye to eye when moderating this echo. However since I was not involved
 with this thread I have not been following it as closely as I like.

 I am not intorlerant of _ANYONE'S_ approach to recovery. I am an eclectic
 man that takes a bit here and takes a bit there and uses what he can.
 The problem arises when someone starts "preaching" and forcing someone to
 hear thier side of the issue. Generally the off topic "not in the rules"
 stuff is born of the LONG experience that Rich has gained moderating this 
 echo. HECK he is the FOUNDER and almost sole remainder of this medium
 that remembers the early days of this stuff from 'round '87...

 I suggest cut the man some slack after all he is the Moderator of this 
 echo.
