Cels Forum

I agree with you on some points, though I have to admit that
it's hard to listen to somebody preaching that the sheep 
shoudln't talk when they seem "sheepish" to leave an email address 
themselves.  After all, your post is still anonymous, but
as it's not flaming, I guess it's okay.  Please don't take 
offense, I'm just trying to make a point.

Actually, I think that it's not quite this way.  I think it's
just random chance when people on either side of the battle
check this forum and decide to post.  If you look carefully,
you'll see there are posts from each side at all sorts of
times (often it's hard to notice because people think in
trees and threads visually and don't check the time stamps)

However, I believe that pointless posts and just plain bashing
are pointless.  Posts meant to bring more information (in the
form of new ideas, more evidence for either side etc etc) are
needed in helping people form their own opinions.

Lastly, don't jump to the conclusion that the first people to
post are always the flamers and the last are always the protectors.
Often times, the first post is a bit irrational, but in some
cases, it has been just a note, a questions, or an experience.
I realize a lot of badmouthing happens that probably shouldn't,
but to say that starting up a possible accusation is flaming
will block freedom of speech and eventually hurt us all in the
end.  I would like to believe this forum is about information.
So, I hope you mean the person starting the flaming isn't the
person starting the discussion.
