> I'm frequently impressed with your peacemaking skills. Do you think the new atmosphere on Babble influences how you respond to these situations?
That's a good question. I really don't detect a change in the atmosphere. Perhaps I am not in tune with Psycho-Babble right now.
> I think it does with me. Do you think you react more when you feel less confidence that Dr. Bob will handle things?
I'm not sure. I guess I have the potential to be less civil in his absence when my passions run high.
> There are times when I think "Well, heck. If this is the Wild Wild West, then I'm going to pull out my six shooter because I have to protect myself." Then Dr. Bob will randomly show up and confuse me.
LOL I usually try to remember the lessons in civil discourse that were once taught here. I know that some of my words were uncivil, and I apologized to PC for having posted them.
> I don't think you need to feel defensive. You have many years invested on Babble and your body of contributions speak for you. No one else *can* speak for you as well as you speak for yourself by who you are and what you do.
Thanks.
