VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

World's best swimmer is next to a drowning man. World's best swimmer doesn't HAVE to do it. So, the man drowns. No, he didn't have to do it.

However, I consider it a monster for it.

Buffy would agree with me. She's the best talented for the job and like a surgeon who refuses to use those skills in an emergency situation, she's got an obligation because the other choice is to be profoundly selfish and a waste of human flesh.
