commentary

I appreciate the efforts to lift the veil on those cowardly posters here, and everywhere, who use insults, twisted words, concepts, and moral compasses on this, or any other, website. I believe that if everyone signed their real name there would be more accountability, civility, and transparency shown to everybody. At the same time, if they signed their real names, they would still have the oppurtunity to express themselves, and demonstrate their ignorance, lack of education, strange thought processes, and lack of conscience and cojones. They could be fairly evaluated for what they are. Dr. Mel P. Johnson

clarification

Let me clear the air. Whoever says they have it good authority that I rarely post on this site has NEVER spoken with me about it, because its patently NOT TRUE. Although I have another blog at GreenGuy1700 at blogspot, I check this site at least daily, and post using my name. The Gazette editor made the remark that, since my letters and everyone elses letters to the Gazette editor, are signed, he suggested that all posts be signed. It sounded reasonable so I have taken the lead, and started signing my posts. Lead by example is my motto, so I am trying this approach out to see if it catches on. I believe it will stop, or at least slow down, the personal insults and attacks that are sometimes posted here, if everyone signs their names and takes responsibility for their comments.
