A response in a thread is as much to the rest of the reading community as it is to the person to whom you respond. My point was simply that it is inappropriate for anyone who is not TOD staff to pretend to be a moderator. There's been plenty of that lately with people trying to tell others to shut up or go away. That's not our decision to make and my comment was a reminder to us all that it is not our decision to make. If you find a post or poster disruptive, it's far better to email Professor Goose than to try to play policeman yourself.
In fact, it's even amusing that you took personal offense at my statement, which in itself is a perfect demonstration of the problems of communicating in this medium.

Into the Grey Zone
I like what Fallout said in the comments at your Greyzone post.
But then again, wasn't it the goal of The Oil Drum to make more people (be they psycho's or otherwise) aware of Peak Oil?

((No, he didn't say that. It's a play on "with great power comes great responsibility", to which of course GWB agrees --but now we're really off topic. Just shows you how word association takes the human mind down into the gutter. Speaking of which .... nah.))
