    Beneath it all was a sensible discussion .
    And , everyone had a point , and argued it , but it went downhill from there .

    It does sometimes .
    We , who take the time to discuss F1 , are pretty passionate about it in the first place .
    I've been here for a long time , and seen many brou-ha-has come and go .

    This was a small blip in the grand scheme of things .

    Hopefully , nobody will leave as a result .
    Some of the best F1 minds I've seen here have gone because they were "too passionate" , and others left because they didn't .

    It'll all smooth out . Don't worry .

    Then , it will all fly apart again .

    Yeah Baggie I went a little mental, but I did try (at least in my first post) to simply dismiss DA's assertion. As for TBK he is on my sh*t list for saying situations in F1 need to be simplified so that Americans can understand them. I'll ---- that little mother------!! In retrospect I probably should have let DA's opinion be, for the simple reason that this tabloid aspect of the sport (complainers vs lesser complainers) is a joke to me and sometimes I can't help scoffing at such insignificant BS. In the future I will be a little more careful which threads to drop a neutron bomb upon, because getting the race thread locked was not really that cool
    Later meat, I'm off for a massage
    May the forza be with you

    Maybe next time Taz goes all ninja in a forum we have to make him give up the keys to the scoot for a week or two?

    Better yet, he has to give it to one of us, that will leave me hoping he nukes a thread.

    I've seen the boil overs in the F1 forum before, and it is a shame that it takes out so many people. I just call it quits earlier before it bothers me, but over the years I've just learned not to let things bother me.

    The answer , Mr. Bear , is to have a massage before you post , so you're nice and relaxed when you chime in .

    That would be incredibly inconvenient..meat. From this point forward l think I will just expose illogical, erroneous, ----ed up comments without personally attacking the ----heads, thus simultaneously exclude the use of expressions like ----head, ----head ----breath, pole smoker, pillow biter, vaffanculo, and etc.

    Ah , Tazzy , I wasn't meaning to pick on y'all .
    Others were being a little sketchy , too .

    I don't want anyone to change their style , but rather , maybe , when the fever is hot , to step away from the keys for a minute , and read the post with a fresh mind before hitting "enter" .
    I wish the whole world would do that , too , sometimes .

    You don't need to , all of a sudden , step into the phone booth to change into "Anti-Illogical , Counter Erroneous man" , even if you do kinda fancy the cape look , Bear .



    Oh , yeah , I almost forgot to mention that I typed this really slowly , because I know you Americans don't read too quickly .Hee hee .

    You could just be nice and say "I don't agree"
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    Here we go into another war into Iraq with no end game... or rather, the same war in Iraq with still no end game.
    Australia found a teenager who it could hold up as a terrorist, who was conveniently killed, and now we have a new set of powers for ASIO.
    I think I've heard this tune before... it's an old song.
    The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!
