    Interesting thread.

    Here's a thought: Don't get emotionally attached to an internet forum. Just take what you like, and let the rest slide. Life's WAY too short to get hung up on the little stuff.

I guess what makes this system function is the thought that if the secret police are busy next door, then maybe they're just too busy to knock on my door?

    That is what I don't like about the current practice. But if it's the only one we've got I guess my choice is to conform or vote with my feet.
    Very well stated. Bravo!

    ...but this also gets a salute from me:

    Speaking of monkeys, I think Spider Monkeys are very cool. But, Chimpanzees are my favorites, which are apes, not monkeys - though some people insist on referring to them as monkeys. And... oh, wait. Uh....
