"Rules" is such an ugly word, don't you think? 

I'm of the pirate sort of thinking...they're more like guidelines.

I think we're all pretty good if we keep the language clean, state fact as fact, opinion as opinion, try to stear clear of the ad hominem attacks (eg. name-calling, etc.). 

Admittedly I have not memorized all the ihang rules, however, I am sure they are posted somewhere.  Feel free to look.  If someone points out something to me that is against those rules, I must in good conscience as a 'mod' address it.  Dave, the ihang guru, would be ticked if I didn't and I don't want him mad at me!

I very much dislike deletions (feels all tyrannical), but on occasion I suppose they are necessary -- if the offense is egregious.  I would much prefer to be the grammar nazi than the rule nazi, if you get my drift. 

Confucius say:  free speech for all !!!!

P.S.  Posts about the company and actual items of interest regarding the company and our investment in such are most appreciated.
