I think that there are very many valuable opinions on this forum whether it b a mod or member or newbee. We come from all places and walks of life. We as adults I feel should b able 2 express our opinions as such and be able to agree 2 disagree and walk away still friends. Ive learned alot from this forum both the easy way and the hard way. Not always agreeing with a mods opinion but respecting it as I do others just the same(after I got over being mad,lol). I have alot left to learn from this forum and everyone's opinion undoubtedly will b valuable to someone somewhere down the line.
All I can say to this one is WOW! I cant belive what I am reading, I have never seen any racism either. Memebers in this forum are not just American they are from all over the world many different cultures and languages in here. And thats part of what makes this forum so great.
One thing that is Nice is the Freedome of speach not only in the USA but on this forum as well. Not every one will always agree or like the same things. It is nice that everyone has his or her own opinion on things. Think about this once...... if everyone felt the same way about everything all of the time there would be no fights not arguments but then this world would be very boreing as well dont you think?
I personally don't feel any kind of 'ratings' system for the mods would serve any positive purpose. They all do a thankless job at times and they all have a wealth of knowledge, and I for one appreciate them , even if I don't agree with them on everything.
And regards Les and me debating> He said stop drinking the fox-red Kool-Aide, then offered me another flavor of Kool-Aide, I said thanks but no thanks I didn't want any Kool-Aide of any flavor, And that was that
I did not feel the least bit apprehensive in posting 'no Kool-Aide for me' , and never felt that I would be retaliated against.
So lets all agree that we appreciate all of the mods on this forum.

Page 1 Microsoft rant: "Only problem I have is when your talking to India and people of that nature". What do you call that? Open you eyes. Let's be real. That is a racists statement. It may not have been intended to be one but it is. If you don't see that then your blind. Give me break. I have tried to be civil about this. I am not Indian but if I were I would be pissed!!! Maybe would need moderators of a more sensitive to these kind've things. I would have deleted that post, it is inappropriate. But like Blu has said, "Let us decide which posts to delete." Wake up people, this is how it starts.
@Toomanycats,
I'm sure your point has been heard, and unfortunately there will always be those clueless comments. I don't think any member here has deliberately tried to be racist, just maybe a bit ignorant is all.

Apols for the typo - maybe I was only proposing to cut taxes in Texas?
And yes, please, I can not reiterate strongly enough. If you see a post that you feel is against the rules or offends you due to racism, flaming, sexism etc, PLEASE click report a post. I do not want to see debate here about specific posts - that is against rule 17 and everyone here knows how I feel about rule 17.
So, toomanycats, by all means let's talk about racism, but please, no specific posts in this thread.

I think if an example is going to be used it should be used in it's entirety. That doesn't mean I am going against the 2 posts above & saying post it here though.
