Oh... kinda like the NASCAR "Gentlesmens's Agreement??"

I do not, on purpose, live in an area of town that has a Homeowners Association. The rules, laws, of my town are sufficient for me and I need no OTHER, non-elected people agreeing on how I should use my own property. The GOVERNMENT does a FINE job at that now, thank you very much.

If people are worried about FLAME WARS, I would suggest that they not participate in one. (think TARBABY here)

I think it was Samuel Clemens that observed........

If someone invites me to dinner, I can claim I've just eaten,
If someone invites me to walk with them a bit, I can claim that I am tired.
But if someone invites me to a fight, then, by golly, I just have to oblige them.

JR has 'rules' listed here in FRland and HE enforces them, as HE sees fit.

Works for me....................

Thank you so much for sharing your decision neither to sign-on to the agreement nor to comply with our guidelines to avoid flame wars on science threads.

I now advise others who are interested in avoiding science thread flame wars of your decision in the matter and suggest that they avoid confrontation with you.
