And rightly so, because that is true.IMO, some of the longer blocks have provided needed relief from the uproar created by posters who were repeatedly disruptive, and those breaks allowed the board(s) in general to get back to "normal." Normal, imo, means posts tend to be generally civil, even when disagreements occur.

PS: this isn't directed specifically to Oracle, I am responding because the quote from the post caught my attention, and I am not criticizing Oracle or anybody for holding any opinion about anything anywhere, and I fully believe in and support the first amendment of the U.S. Constitution (freedom of speech) and am not trying to squelch further discussion or say anything bad about past discussion on this issue, nor do I have the intent in this post to present all possible viewpoints, it is only my opinion, and mine alone.
