Captain - here is my perspective - and I emphasize the MY part of that statement, for I would NEVER presume to speak for anyone else here, or anywhere else for that matter:
Your entrance here into the 'adult' thread consisted of four words, "This thread scares me." How, exactly, would you think that people are going to respond to that? No matter what else is going on here at BWW, this thread has exemplified people trying to connect and respond to each other with respect and dignity. Just tonight, we were dealing with issues of assault, death and remembrance. Where, exactly do your taunts figure into this equation?
And lest you think there is any kind of alientaion inherrant, I invite you to read back to where Cyndy introduced herself. It's amazing what happens when you approach with an open heart and mind to any situation - no matter how 'annonymous' it may appear.
You leave no room for approach, as your persona reeks of negativity and disdain. While that is certainly a viable choice for you, I can assure you it won't get you anywhere on THIS thread. There are plenty of people on this board who are willing to engage in the acerbic dialogue that you seem drawn to - please feel free to seek them out and enjoy the interaction. We here do not wish to have that influence, and would appreciate your respect of our wishes.
