Thank you for the replies Dr Bob but I am still thinking..well I now KNOW that by your standard the person that got a PBS for their post to ME as well as Herman Munster who also got a PBS should have been PBC'ed due to the below part of your rules
::::others, post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down, harass or pressure others, use language that could offend others::::

Different points of view are fine, and in fact encouraged, but your freedom of speech is limited here. It can be therapeutic to express yourself, but this isn't necessarily the place.
