If this forum becomes corrupted like the DML...I will take Immediate Action to make sure we have a adequate replacement....I have a web design team that can make a full fledged community webpage along with a free community of Delorean enthusiasts, owners, exowners etc etc where we can be free. I'd hate to see this great forum lower itself to the DML's Level. ----- Original Message ----- From: timnagin To: DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 3:13 PM Subject: RE: [DMCForum] RE: [Decorum] One thing I would like to add to this is about the time of day posting. People have different work and sleep schedules. Assuming one can not make a valid statement at 3:00 AM is not true. My work schedule has me getting up at 4:00 AM, and at times going to bed at 8:00 AM. Sometimes I do this while traveling as well. My understanding is that this forum was created to allow free expression. If one does not want to read what another has posted then delete it. If one wishes to respond to it then so be it. We all have a delete key. An example of this is the recent discussion on 'ass hat'. Would that have been allowed on the DML? I think not, but it was important for everyone to know about. The messages that did make it through had to be specifically tailored to do so. Since I collect quotes, here are a few I selected quickly... If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.-Henry David Thoreau Nothing in the world makes people so afraid as the influence of independent-minded people -Albert Einstein Greg -----Original Message----- From: Andrei Cular [mailto:acular@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 9:49 PM To: DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [DMCForum] RE: [Decorum] Exactly. If you dont like where a thread is heading then just delete the messages. Walt has a lot of good knoledge, and experiance to offer. Sometimes his posts are very opionated, but that is how they should be taken as an opinion. If he has facts to back what he says it is usually something that he has researched. The fact that we can and do say what ever we want is important. I dont see what is wrong as long as we continue to self moderate, keep things clean, and try of offend everyone equaly. And as far as Walt and others posting while intoxicated, I asked some EE friends to try make an interface for those little portable breathalyzers. So at least we will all beable to have one next to the keyboard and if we blow above a limit sending email and e-bay bids will not go throught till your limit comes down.

I don't like the DML because they control what goes on...who cares what walt says, hes merley speaking his opinion, all of us Democrats (GOP/DFL other numerous parties) like the freedom of speech, to rob us of this right, is going against what this forum was originally about. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Jan van de Wouw > To: DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 12:14 PM > Subject: Re: [DMCForum] RE: [Decorum] > > > On 12-06-2003 00:35, Dick Ryan wrote: > > > Couldn't help but notice that Walt's comment was > > posted after midnight.
