Free Speech

Would my participation in this topic be aided by having any idea what's going on?  Or is that beside the point for our purposes?

Knowingly re-posting a deleted post warrants pretty heavy infraction points.

I also don't appreciate the lie by omission that this thread is, if Inks's summary is accurate.

[Alcon]

we're infracting objectively false statements?

Simfan, please go back to your old self.  I feel like I'm reading Lief's posts twice and that's not a knock on Lief, as I would feel the same way if Lief started posting like old Simfan.  There's too much Yin and not enough Yang on this forum right now.

Erm...

But yes! That's it! I was trying to be Lief! . I had not managed to concoct a complete worldview- it ranged from a latte liberal to a collegiate socialist. Given more time, a definite persona a with viewpoint somewhere within that spectrum would have emerged. But that was it- Lief!

I haven't really been around for months, and I can still tell that you've been trying too hard.

I'm sorry if I cannot possess some kind of online-sprezzatura for your amusement.
