This is ludicrous.  Perhaps it would be reasonable to say that all should
stop with attacking others, but to say "either my opinion wins, or his
does" shuts out any kind of meaningful difference of opinion.  Perhaps you
don't think the difference is meaningful, but I can't see how you can make
that judgement for all the potential readers here.

I don't particularly want to hear more BS from anyone--that includes NLP
proseletyzing on your part, Friday, and repeated attacks from George.
You've both made your points time and again, and I think it's time
to move on.  I certainly don't want to silence you about NLP, but repeating
the same claims (which from my perspective are unfounded, since you don't
seem capable of demonstrating much over the net) is not adding any more
information than George's rigid nay-saying.

Who counts?  Who makes sure that the postings have all propagated to the site
of the person who counts?  I really can't see this as a fair method of
voting.  Perhaps it could be amended to say that any votes that have a
posted date before the 20th will be counted even if they propagate to
the counter's site later than that.

Are you woman enough to cease your condescension to anyone who doesn't
meet your standards?
