dr. bob,
i'd like to comment on your facitious subject line referring to larry's monologue--"a perfect world".
no, you're the one that wants a perfect world, dr. bob. i find it maddening the way you use semantics to fit your purposes. we wouldn't be trying to find such a "perfect" solution if you didn't demand it. to begin with, you want "perfect" rules to fit every situation and "perfect" people to inhabit your forum. i wonder if you realize that you yourself are not "perfect".
i believe it is your use of semantics (whether logical or not) to win arguments at all costs that is so frustrating, rather than to genuinely try to come to a fair conclusion. it is an illusion that we are working together in this administrative process when in reality you have resigned from the beginning to "win" no matter what. (and i don't find this particularly civil. civility is composed of more than just mere words...)
i know i said i was done here, but i had to express this to you. if you choose to block me, i can't stop you, but i know i am not the only one who has been frustrated in my dealings with you. perhaps maybe you should just listen...
