And can you please stop referring to this as "The POIS Forum" it clearly is not.


(1) I welcome every newcomer to "the POIS thread of The Naked Science Forum" in bold letters.

(2) The above is wordy, so it's often abbreviated to POIS forum.

(3) I see nothing wrong with (2) since it is an "online discussion site" (a basic definition of "forum") about POIS, with an exchange of experiences, treatments and theories.

Demo. You jumped in to a discussion that had been ongoing, accross different topics, for a number of months. At no point was the pois topic mentioned or hinted at, so why you felt you had to defend it is beyond me.

My articulation relfected that discussion, you chose to think it was directed at you for some unknown reason. 

As for the two "unsolicited emails" you received, well, woopey doo. If the moderator has a problem then he/she can either make that known to me or it is nothing more that tittle tattle from a moderator about a forum member. This is not a good thing for a moderator to be doing, is it?

"out of courtesy" do you PM everyone you reply to with a copy of your reply?

Would the moderator who contacted you care to contact me with their thoughts, and why they felt the need to talk about me and not to me?

I also have no intention of continuing this pointless discussion. You were wrong in your assumptions, end of story.

With no respect at all, I push the submit button.

tazdas, this post might help you find information about POIS that we have already discussed, by tailoring a Google search to this POIS forum:

It needed defending because this "discussion" (albeit one sided) was not the first time. I will now terminate with full agreement as to its  "pointlessness". And with no respect at all, apparently another solid point of agreement.
