Anyone else remember when the fml circulation was about 2546 or so?...
We`ve now been hanging with about 2593.....That was only ....what, 6
months ago? (just guessing)..I`m a veritable rookie here with about 1 to
2 years in.  But I still think that the fml was more of a "Discussion" &
"Fact/Opinion" oriented forum.  Many other topics were there, too,..not
trying to shortchange anyone.  But there has been a steady 'growth' of
"Brain-not-engaged",..."Fingers Typing" ..Error, Error, humans.
 
We now have "Debates", dominating the screen...for weeks on end, and on
the same topic, no less!  Maybe a "moratorium" on a long-discussed topic,
or BIG reminding people at the beginning of each issue to try to 'cool
down' this 'debate' or that 'discussion', could help?  Mz.  Amy, take a
break....that`s a lot to absorb, as I`m long-winded & "high-strung"....
catch up?...ok,........THERE HAVE BEEN SOME REAL "STRONG" ATTACKS AT
PEOPLE LATELY,...RANDOM, & OTHERWISE.  I believe that some of them
should never have been printed.....one person`s opinion.  The FML,
being the possibly the longest running and best forum, has drawn new
members,.....possibly some need an Instruction Manual!.......
 
Dooks!
