    It is funny this got bumped. Glad to see you are doing somewhat better NPT.

    Nice to see that there are some here who view open debate as healthy, even as we disagree.

    (and then there are others ;) )

    Interesting comments by GWorld. I guess you are referring to the Texas group of offshoot Mormons with multiple wives.

    The result was interesting as I recall. After raiding the camp and Texas authorities holding the kids the courts ruled against that. Meanwhile the "group" agreed to some kind of actions that (and I forget exactly) made their camp "more open" or gave more protections to the youngest kids, especially the young girls.

    It seemed like a reasoned result with some give and take on all sides and a moderated decision that respected protections for both the adults and the kids. In my mind a good solution in a complex world.

    (and on the other aspect of GWorld's comments)--LOL

    Again, glad you are doing better, if only a bit better.

    Thanks for your good wishes, Earl. Yep, most of us seem to understand we've all got points to make. Our pal Mia, on the other hand, well - when he isn't posing as me on other websites:

    http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/09/taking-a-spin-o.html

    Or red repping with a frenetic, nervous pace (red rep of today, when he returned from his apparent embarrassment of the unintended effect of his bumping this long-dead thread: "Get some help" was his love-message red rep to me of today).

    Very sad creature, it seems, who would like to convince everyone of his maturity, I guess, talking about the carter years (Mia was 5 years old at the time, by his birthday), while doing this kind of stuff here, in other sections, on other sites.

    Anyway, thanks again for your well-wishes. And thanks to all, of whatever political stripe, who see value in all of us honorably posting our views. :)

    I don't recommend to keep negging northpoint, whoever is doing it. Mia, if it's you, I'd stop.

    We outnumber you here (liberals + libertarians), and we all like NPT - enough to not let sh*t like this keep going. With the rep system this forum uses, quantity of reputable users outweighs quality.. for as much rep as you have it can only go to a max of 10. Tough luck, we got more guys.

    NPT let me know if you get another.

    Hey Nate - many thanks, man - it's very kind of you. Mia has been regularly red-repping for months, actually - going back to well before the unfortunate thing back some time ago, when I finally did it in return, once, and regretted it then, as you and many others know. It's the tool of children, in my opinion, and for me to care anymore would be equally ridiculous. If Mia wants to pose as me on other sites (just one example from many, as I understand from others - it seems whenever he gets embarrassed here, he goes to other sites and proceeds apace), lie or otherwise slander me here, or on the other sections of this forum mentioned above, that's his call, and his very sad lack. I honestly no longer care.

    But I do appreciate your thoughts, Nate -really, very humbly appreciated.

    Paul

    Join the unfortunate club, Sabian. That would be the fella who bumped this thread after 2 years dead, as bizarre as it seems. I get them from him on a nearly constant basis. Odd, to put it mildly.

    Look newbie, you're obviously a bit confused here... Read through the entire thread, and do a little research before interjecting your tail where it does not belong. ;)

    This thread is Two years old and I am posting on it? I feel like a schmuck for posting about the subject of the post so vividly years afterwards.

    Glad that northpointaiki is back. For those interested in pesticides, you may want to open a thread in GC. This isn't a suitable thread for it. Thread Closed.
