I think it is nice to have an outsiders opinion as well.  However, when you claim to be working on a doctorate and "educated" your grammar and spelling should be outstanding, which it wasn't.  When it isn't what should be expected of a doctoral candidate it appears to be a fraud.  It was hard for me to buy into it and I want this proposal stopped as well.  We have been trying to sell but the house values have plummeted so we will be here at least another year.

Just my two-cents for what it is worth. :)

My intent was not to "judge" him as you have just judged me. I am as concerned as everyone else. I also believe that we need to always keep up appearances and come across professionally and not grasp at straws. I want this initiative stopped too, for my own reasons. However, I will NOT be talked to disrespectfully or spend my time fighting for a group that fights within. Take the comment as it was written, constructively. There was nothing constructive in your responses and I am not the enemy. I feel sorry for the opposition.

I just re-read what was written in response to your original comment in order to try to understand your point of view. I don't think anyone meant to answer you in a way that was disrespectful. We did disagree with your viewpoint, but I didn't think it was done with any bad intentions. We do a lot of what I would consider healthy arguing at times here, but with the exception of a couple of people that came in and stooped to name-calling and real nastiness, it has generally been done in the spirit of learning from each other and looking for answers. I don't think anyone intended to disrespect you. I know that I didn't and I am sorry if any of us said anything that made you perceive us to be disrespectful. I have also had people jump all over something I said...don't let it scare you away. If you are against the LI then I am sure we have more in common than different.

Just offered my perspective of the situation. It was not my intent to be disrespectful in any way. We just have a different take on the subject.

Thanks, I am sorry too. I am really sensitive to this whole plan and how it will impact children as well. I probably took it too personally as well.
