>>Like i said, this should be done properly
under a different file - OBITUARIES - not with
a "trigger" sign -- as if that will prevent
people who are responsible for their own actions
from reading it -But even if that was done, what would prevent people who are having suicidal ideation, etc., from checking in that other file, board, list, place or whatever, and still reading the exact same thing? I'm not sure how another location would help, as any place on the internet is available to anyone who may be in any amount of distress at any given moment.
I admire your passion and compassion, Squiggles, in caring so much about this issue because you see a potential danger to others. I wish we *could* somehow 100% protect the most vulnerable among us, but I don't think it's realistic. Not for Dr. Bob, not for anyone.
>>I think you are primarily interested in collecting statistics --for whom I'm not sure.
Just *knowing* Dr. Bob in the admittedly very small, limited aspects that I do, I disagree. The whole total of everything he has done in the past, and is doing now to keep this place going (growing, improving), to insist on civility, and so on, sends me the message his primary intrests run deeper and are more heartfelt than your statement allows. Obviously, I could be totally wrong, but then so could any of us when we ascribe motivations to others.
