Jerry,

Good idea. Folks sometimes don't behave as though they understand the BB is part of a web site that is Bob's property. Since content is the VALUE in a web site, it only makes sense that Bob, or his designated moderators, take actions to maintain the value. Some may not understand that freedom of speech does not apply when on other's private property. They should consider writing a letter to the editor or establishing their own web site.

I don't take issue with disagreements among BB members, whether it's about fishing or some other topic. Disagreement and debate are tools of growth and learning. Calling those who disagree with us idiots is a sure sign of lack of growth and learning, and it devalues the content of the BB. Not to mention that it violates the Golden Rule.

I enjoy this community and have learned a few things. I try to return the favor when I can.

Sincerely

Salmo g.
