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.

Dave, sorry I took so long to respond...I am currently in the Caribbean seeking the sun and surf along with new friends and places. Weather is great and the scenery is beautiful but I do enjoy Europe more. In regards to your Harari quote, I think that logic, truth, and fact applies to any and all venues, this forum included. Many times emotion and politics override reason and correctness, robbing us of a truly intellectual exercise and a learning experience.Decisions and policy made from this position are usually flawed. It is easy to separate fact from fiction with a little work, but, it appears, that today volume and hysterics are the predominate forces in "debate". I hope you continue your inputs to the forum to give it the needed energy to survive as opposed to those who either watch from the sidelines or those who criticize topics that offend their delicate natures!
