I am always open to learning aobut other cultures and how interactions between them can be faciliated. I would prefer that any guest expert here not comment on specific posts, but rather provide education or information in response to questions or on a general level. I would hate for any poster to feel singled out because their post was scrutinized and commented on by a guest expert.
Also, I trust Noa's views on the ADL, so I suppose I would prefer a guest expert from there if we are to have one.
Regarding the three post rule, I have to admit, I see no reason why that should be waived for a guest expert. If the GE were responding to individual posters, than the rule doesn't apply anyway, as far as I understand it. Ms. Munro did not seem to have any difficulty with the 3 post rule in effect during her recent time here.
Just my immediate thoughts on this topic...
Oh, one more...regarding posts that may have the *potential* to arouse feelings of one type of another...I think that *potential* exists on a continuum that makes it very difficult to judge. I would hate to see posts sanctioned because of a slim potential for evoking a certain feeling. If so, I would personally feel much more restricted in posting here. But I do understand that *potential* is a subjective concept.
