Now let's use this background on your request for me to explain my statement that I can not force Mr Hsiung and his deputies to respond and that I will have to wait for one greater than me to force them to do so.
There is potential harm that could come to people that are targets of hate in posts here that the hate is allowed to stand. The flame that Mr Hsiung says he will not wait to quench with him acting to sanction posts of that nature, since he states that one match could cause a forest fire, and if not, the fire is still burning.
Let us look at this post. Here not only is Judaism insulted, but Islam as well and other faiths and other peoples.
To understand what is at issue here, there are two lists. The second list describes those faiths that are the worst. And looking at #5 in the second list, you can see what I am referring to.

Your concern to me as to what I mean concerning that the former deputies and Mr Hsiung have left my requests/notifications outstanding and what I mean by that one greater than me would have to arrive to force you and the others that have left my requests/notification unresponded to oould be explained by me here with the understanding of some past posts from here that I think are relevant to the discussion here.
Here is one such.

You wrote the above. And you say that you are not sure what I want you to say.
You do not have to answer my request to you. But this is much more than that, for the issue at hand is that there are years of outstanding requests/notifications from me to Mr Hsiung and his deputies of which some have resigned.
Now you say that no one has to reply to you. But they can if they want to. And if a response to my requests/notifications to Mr Hsiung could save lives, head off anti-Semitic hatred, then I do not see the "good" of that the requests are outstanding. I do not see the support, if the request is outstanding. What I do see, is that many posts that constitute anti-Semitism are allowed to stand and readers could think that hatred toward the Jews posted here is supportive because Mr Hsiung states that support takes precedence and that he does not wait to act for one match could start a forest fire. An if any one here thinks that members will benefit from seeing my outstanding notifications/requests, then they have the opportunity to post who are the subset of people that they think would benefit. Those that do not want to do that can reject this opportunity now.
Lou

You are certainly entitled to belive that psychotopic medication is more harmful than beneficial and that there is anti-semitism behind posts on Babble, I only wish that you would at least consider why there is such a strong reaction to your methods here.

Toph,
You wrote,[...there is anti-Semitism behind posts on babble...there is such a strong reaction to your methods here...].
I am unsure as to what you are wanting to mean here. If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
A. What are my methods?
B. Could a strong reaction be good?
C. What do you think could happen if the requests/notifications from me to Mr Hsiung and his deputy and his past deputies were responded to? In particular but not limited to the ones that could arouse anti-Semitic feelings or insult Judaism or accuse Jews or degrade or dehumanizes Jews?

Maybe other roles could qualify as minions, too. Do you want to create your own job? I'd like to encourage initiative. :-)

The relationship, I guess, passing something along, patience, love, experience, guidance, imitation.
And music- it's a lot to really learn an instrument. I kinda think it's a gift.
Something like that ;-)

Gerard Manley Hopkins (184489). Poems. 1918.
12. The Windhover
To Christ our Lord
I CAUGHT this morning mornings minion, king-
dom of daylights dauphin, dapple-dawn-drawn Falcon, in his riding
Of the rolling level underneath him steady air, and striding
High there, how he rung upon the rein of a wimpling wing
In his ecstasy! then off, off forth on swing, 5
As a skates heel sweeps smooth on a bow-bend: the hurl and gliding
Rebuffed the big wind. My heart in hiding
Stirred for a bird,the achieve of; the mastery of the thing!
Brute beauty and valour and act, oh, air, pride, plume, here
Buckle! AND the fire that breaks from thee then, a billion 10
Times told lovelier, more dangerous, O my chevalier!
No wonder of it: shéer plód makes plough down sillion
Shine, and blue-bleak embers, ah my dear,
Fall, gall themselves, and gash gold-vermillion.

It loses the meaning without the dedication :)
What an odd thing for you to do! And what an odd interpretation of who the chevalier is! But I am glad you're heart was stirred! It's one of my favorite poems. It makes the word minion seem a desirable thing. I think it comes from the French for darling.

thanks, I guess, but I can't make anything out of it. Someone would have to translate the English into English ;-)
Although once an English major, I was always rotten with poetry of almost any kind.

Could anybody translate? I'm sure there are lots of people here who find poetry foreign.

Perhaps Hopkins is better listened to when read well out loud?
Listening to friends reading (hopefully well) is something I miss in my life.
I recall asking a friend to read a poem in Quechua, a deep guttural though gentle language, and was surprised it was so moving.
