I would like us all to get along with each other. Since the factory went south, we need each other's input even more.

Unfortunately groups like WOG and WOO are private and are not democratic organizations. The forum czars hold the final word on what the rules are, what topics are allowed, what gets moderated or censored, etc. The only recourse is to start your own forum. I completely agree that competing forums keep people honest and limit the infringement on free speech. But as long as the forums are privately owned and funded, free speech is always in doubt. It would be interesting to start a forum and to run it like PBS with grants and individual monetary contributors, free of corporate America. Only then can we approach a democracy where the populace dictates who owns what and what gets printed.

Clearwater, Fl. John does a wonderful job and is overly helpful over there. I am sure Randys has spent upwards of 15G's on the upkeep and development and countless un billable attention time. Their google placement will attest to that. The source is a better place to find members and pool of information as this yahoo information wont show up in a google search . There is a definite need for the site and the success proves the value. There was a list displayed that had a banter title and description. problem with banter, if one 'party of' is silenced, statements by the other is defamation. Problem with too much control of one forum is when it is the only source, what can be done, is done irregardless of the merit or un answered replies(by silence of those in control) . if the list is removed, it was this site that prompted removal which only proves merit in the existance of addital sources. I wont last on the site so I quit. John even quit Wanderlodge_ all when I joined, what do you think my chances were. the best way to not be put on the index was to not participate. I dont want to add to information that is possibly filtered or lost at the whim of few (however well respected) individuals. when HomeDepot was the only game in Romoland, 2x4,s were green crooked and $5.00. Lowes came to Town, now ; the 2x4's are $3.10 furniture grade and a cleark will help load your truck. 'Better is only a reference to that worst'.
