i agree.

okay. but sometimes people get blocked when they aren't highly emotional... don't they?

so sometimes... blocks aren't 'earned'?

i guess.
but i guess i get to thinking about how people have followed great leaders in history because it is their 'clubhouse' or country or whatever and with a little hindsight...i think it is important to critique otherwise... well... i'm not sure that the absense of critique is for the good of the group. if you don't question and don't consider possible improvements then... well... i don't see how that is for the good of the group. surely... babble isn't perfect.

that is good :-)

though it is an empirical matter whether the current rules achieve the best trade-off of benefit to harm...
