    ??? - no comment, although this *episode* has probaly lowered my treshold of tolerance ... and awareness for sociocultural differences is always a two-way road, inside and outside the realm of *sense of humour*

    "Episode"... yeah I went through withdrawels and everything. My wife had to tie me to the bed so I wouldn't go and try and log into the VSL Forum. I was drooling and everything. It was bad.

    I agree, so when we see/hear something which we don't like/understand, we can take the option of seeking clarification through dialogue, rather than allow ourselves to be upset.
    Isn't that how peaceful negotiation works? [:)]

    But what about upsetting dialogue?

    And what about writing dialogue while upset?

    You can't prevent being upset.

    I firmly believe that we can choose either to "react" or to "respond" to life .... [[;)]]

    Well this post is both a reaction and a response, so it beckons the famous phrase ...

    HUH?
  • G

    Reaction: "Knee-jerk" type of thing, no thought, visceral, sometimes "dangerous", capable of causing ill will ....

    Response: Thought out, usually more "rational", more conducive to peaceful negotiation/dialogue .... [[;)]] [*-)]:

    i can't believe ee was actually banned [[:|]] !

    Someone as useful, entertaining, stimulating..ok, annoying as that should not be banned for more than -er...15 minutes/ A day?

    then again, I've been away from the forum (thanks, it was nice) so i don't have to read ee every day...maybe that raises my tolerance level.

    I must say the VSL moderators appear quite civil gentlemen to me.

    Glad we're all friends again.

    (i can't believe ee was actually banned!)

    Hey Nigel,

    Thanks for the support. Appreciate it.

    There are no words other than what I've already said. The whole thing was a step backward as far as progress goes. MY country thrives on freedom of speech. It's the basis of innovation and progress.
