Perhaps some people would like to advocate for a new committee to be created to moderate the list serve and to establish what is acceptable and relevant content to the original 1995 Vision 2020 Mission Statement. Give them the right to delete anything they disagree with, pick and choose who gets to participate, and under what conditions.
I personally consider how we treat our soldiers and terrorists relevant. As Moscow does have residents in war. We have an ROTC program here. And Moscow also cares about civil rights, and the how it impacts our community. We are as much a part of the US community as any other city in America. I don't believe our topics should be limited to the city code of fines for dog poo on sidewalks and what days we can water our lawn, or what kind of pies will be at the Farmer's Market.
I certainly find this conversation more relevant to our community over that bashing Doug Wilson every day like this forum did for about five years.
Best Regards,
Donovan

Bev,
Such graciousness is not often encountered on vision 2020. It is too bad that some people think so much of themselves that they have hijacked this public service to stroke their egos. The problem with my delete button is that it is hard to find because the print is worn off because of overuse. I really object to the 5 minutes it takes to download all those messages I don’t want, to get to the few that keep me informed as to what is going on in the community.

Seems like an odd request. Sorry I lost my copy of the list of every approved topic 98% of the people on Vision 2020 want to engage in. So, I am simply going to request you click the delete button if you don't want to read or participate in the discussion.
Best Regards,
Donovan

Date: Monday, June 16, 2008, 7:36 AMWarren, I'm not offended and couldn't agree more. Thank you for saying it.I'm sure98% of the other Vision 2020 lurkers agree with you. Can we all be courteous and limit posts to 3 per day? This would certainlyalleviate the ad nauseum posting about GITMO, Interfaith, Mexican Consulate,Everyone Deserves Death and on and on.... Can we treat Vision 2020 as a"Community" listserve and not as a personal blog for just a few. Ifyouwant to continue these unwinnable arguments, how about taking them offVision 2020? B. J.
