Exactly. Just like it used to be, iirc.

Again, we agree here. But for the moment, Randy has decided on another tack and I want to support him in hopes that the civility level -- that you so nicely describe indeed -- will return and that consistent moderation when needed and good self-moderation always will become the norm.
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"> On a personal note, I am deeply saddened to hear of your and your friends' loss. We too have recently experienced the loss of a young friend to a drunk driving accident and it is the worst to see a young life wiped out in an instant of poor judgment. Our friend knew he was too drunk to drive, but sadly gave his keys to another drunk friend. It was a tragedy for our whole community.
Thank you,
Punki; the circumstances sound sadly similar. My sympathies for your loss as well.
