Just two cents:

I'm glad to see discussions that are devoid of tempests in teapots and advanced trollery.

It's been a pleasure to peruse TOD recently.

(In spite of overall developments world wide...)

Yes...Bendeasy..its nice to read without the trolls but I suspect from several posts that one of the reknown banned ones has his camel's nose back under the tent flap and with a new ID. At least he has dropped the part about pleading for a mass dieoff and how we all deserve it. I could be wrong but its extremely hard for a hard core troller to change his stripes completely.

Still as you say...very pleasant.
