I think the goal has to be to make this a place where the majority of the people feel comfortable and know they will not be subjected to insults or foul language just for having an opinion or question. The public trial was one way to create an awareness of the problem but maybe not the best way. Several people have asked why the article on the Dillinger vote was taken down. The reason is that the intent was not to embarrass anyone but rather to have the community members have input on what type of site they want this to be. There certainly are Jackites in the mix that will cause trouble for any reason and we have attempted to even let their voices be heard as long as it didn't become personal attacks or vulgarities. Time will tell whether this was a wise decision. Tim Choate
