Floppy,

Don't be a jerk and start picking fights in here by threatening to leave. I like the arguments your posting, but don't be juvenile.

Just stating that sometimes it is not worth it to stick around and try to have intelligent conversations. Anthony is the moderator, and I feel that he should examine what goes on a little closer.

There were some decent people posting things in his forum (Rodney Reel, Rob Base, Tom), and they disappeared due (probably) to unnecessary opposition from Anthony's friends on this forum.

They were decent thinkers, and they sparked some nice conversations over in the guestbook, and now they are not coming back. There must be a reason for that, and it seems that, most likely, the reason is the one that I am experiencing now.

As far as the Rob Base and Rodney and Tom and whoever situation is concerned, some of the people under these and other names were people that, in the end, really didn't want to have conversations. They wanted to disrupt. Not all of them, but some. Now, assuming that you are not one of them come back to haunt me, Floppy, I will say that I expect them to come back. However they want to access this site and whatever they want to write, it is up to them. Now that I know "the truth" about what was going on, I am much calmer with the thought that they will return. If you are one of them and are now trying to be civil, I appreciate it. Anyway, I hope you keep contributing, if you want to. Don't let the bad rhetorical skills of others slow you down or discourage you.
