The thread could also stand, I suspect, a good moderatorly “raking” of its several subthemes into separate threads, as can many threads in this and other forums. Alas, hypography’s all-volunteer moderators have limited time, so not every needed organizational cleanup will get done.
My advice is “better place = new thread”. As noted above, this is a very old thread which was intended to be about a specific conflict between a political ideal and reality, not the whole class of such conflicts.
I Object! (unless you mean to start a new thread about the pledge)....the fixation on one example out of several must end! if we do anything let's round up all the "pledge related" posts and banish them and polish it all off by eliminating it from my opening post so the other issues may finally have their turn as I intended......or we could simply start a new thread and divert any following posts related to the pledge to it seeing as it has been officially beat to death and there's no point further beating this dead horse here

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
