Have you noticed that I am not to anal in enforcing the rules to the letter
on a "hair trigger"? I have let you and many others get away with
stuff to.

Those in this echo including Mr Ceppa, whom could be considered as on the
left, would rather prefer that everyone get a "vacation" on the
drop of a hat. Thats basically how another echo gets run, this echo is not
that echo.

However if I ran this echo like that echo taking into consideration the
behavior of **ALL** who choose to instigate or berate, a fair number of you
would be serving echo vacations on regular basis. The best way to kill an
echo is to go vacation happy, which in the end makes everyone afraid to
debate. I try to give everyone a little rope and see how much of it they
use before actually doing anything about it.

Perhaps if you debate politics instead of chastizing Ceppa or making him or
others the sole topic of your posts, politics might get debated?
