This particular poster has also repeatedly declared that she "will never post in Interfaith again," and demanded to banned along with another disruptor. I think her wish should be granted.

That's apart from the fact that anyone who believes that a dictionary is dispositive evidence of anything is arguing at fifth-grade level I think we can do better than that in this group.

I think we do need to rethink a few things in here. hrmjustin Dec 2014 #1
