it is a stretch for me to imagine that anyone could suggest that a volunteer moderator here is as responsible as a volunteer firefighter is and therefore should be "punished" in any kind of a similiar fashion. a poster "chooses" to be here to post and read. whereas a fire threatening a village isn't something that anyone is going to choose.
i am now retiring from this discussion.
