Entering a Forum is like entering someone's livingroom. You shouldn't insult the host, make a mess on the floor, or leave a bad smell after you've gone. Since we can't read body language or facial expressions, we should try to be polite until we know what the rules of the Forum are, and if the host is senstitive to certain subjects or has certain issues or principles, we should be able to acknowledge them gracefully, even if we do not exactly share them. The people who provide these Forums have invested a lot of time, energy, and money into making places for us. The least we can do is be good guests. Carolly
