I don't think that I was ever asked to change the title of any post that was originated by Spiderjohn. I have never tried to change a heading, and wouldn't know how.

 

If I am wrong, could you be more specific?

 

I want city officials and school board members reading MiddletownUSA.

 

I believe in letting people express themselves with as little moderation as possible. You agreed, before posting, that you would understand that your posts are subject to the administrators and moderators. I was up front with you. I asked you to change a title. You did. End of story.

 

I think we can both accomplish the goal of having our voices heard on here. But I expect respect and decorum. Lay out your comments so others can easily follow what you are saying. And name calling will not be tolerated.

 

So, for intelligent discussions, post here. For all others, post ...you know where.

 

 

 

You pretty much trashed me and my thinking attitude about community issues.

Then after I list a FEW of the things where I have been involved, you say that you think of me differently.

 

Well--I am the same guy who wrote those posts that you dislike so much. Haven't changed one bit. And believe me--I go light around here. I am a veteran of a few scorched earth national message boards.

 

That is why I love the power of the internet and the anonymous screen name.

I strongly believe it to be the message that matters.

I hate to see it influenced by the real identity perception.

If my message is strong and true, why should identity association matter at all?

Should one person's opinions matter that much over those of someone not recognized?

 

I had a lot more fun on the MJ boards b4 I was "outed" by a school system hit man.

As soon as that happened, I was threatened with business reprisals from high-up school officials et al, though their identities remained "secret" to most.  Ironically, the set-up man who exposed me is now someone with whom I can share thoughts and find a great deal of agreement.
