An Appeal to us all

[Foggy]

People, I was shaken to my core yesterday to learn that in one Public Library system, the Ukraine.com site was blocked from access. This happened during the time the thread "A serious question about sex" was active, and when some of the more explicit, vulgar jokes began to be posted.

This and our recent series of unpleasant episodes gives me great cause for concern. We, most of us anyway, are just here to exchange ideas, make new friends, and have a little fun and relaxation. How and why we became so hard on one another, I don't know.

As one who has been just about as harsh with someone else as anybody, may I lead the appeal for us to build a "kinder and gentler" Ukraine.com?

We have already had people leave our fellowship because of various postings, and now I find we have been "blocked" from access in some places.

Folks, let's bury some hatchets. I for one would like to get back to the days when my stomach didn't knot up every time I see new topics and recent postings on the list.

As one who has made more than his share of mistakes, I will be the first to say that I am sorry for my part in making this a troubling place to visit.

Let's get back to having fun again.

Please?

Fog

FOGGY my man,
I'll stand with that - and join you in hoping loved and valued friends come back.
