Could not agree more with your comment about people who think that they can encapsulate a whole argument in the form of a derogatory one liner.

It is not my idea of taking a position. I like to think that I can construct a viewpoint with an explanation as to why I hold the position which I do.

For example, I met a wonderful person at an Open University Summer School, a true soulmate, however, that does not mean that I think that I could have the same attachment to all the women from Glasgow, it would be an absurd generalisation.

I do find it difficult with the moderators being able to block what would appear to be valid comments. The problem is that when they come back after referral they make little or no sense.

Some weeks ago for example I made comments about Blue Badges for the Disabled and said that something sould be done, it was not allowed. Today I hear that the government wants to do something about Blue Badges, do some comments get moderated out because they anticipate government policy.
