As long as we keep this thread on the humorous side of things I don't mind, but I would hate to see this turn into another gun debate that we just recently saw this last week. Personally, I know how to use the delete button, but for those that haven't learned that function yet, and those people get pissed off, and leave this list, depriving us all from what they may have to give to this list. One more thing, it hurts me (I hope I'm not the only one) when Coyote has to threaten to make heads roll when we act like we are a bunch of 6th graders. One thing that I was taught by my dad when I was on the bottom of the pecking order in elementary and middle school (less than 5 years ago, I remember it very well) that may help this list some: if somebody says something, or does something that you dont like, and a fight may result, just remember who it is coming from, and laugh it off, as it will do less harm to the whole community than fighting it out. Something this simple is not worth breaking up this COMMUNITY over, if it comes down to that. As for vanagon content, I think that addressing the well being of this list is more than enough to fulfill the content requirement.

Just a few thoughts from an 18 year old college student....

P.S. Debate is good, as it is civilized and organized, fighting is not as it is chaotic and accomplishes nothing
