Summer is in swing.  Politics is ramped up,  pollen, mold and pollutants are baking in the heat.   People these days are up tight and this is a good time to mention a few things.

No one here is paid.

Sometimes a point is lost in the post if we post too fast.  Don't take an extra 5 seconds to add a "JK" or something the reader needs to understand the gist of the post.

We have all done it.

So take a few extra seconds before pressing the OK button.      On the reader side- per haps the post that has you revved up, maybe the context is off- maybe a digit or word is missing.   Let it go or ask the person what the blurb means....even if it is off the board.

As an educated group- we can have a better forum then, some other venues.

To inspire thought- to grow- to entertain.   Which brings me back to that no one here is paid.

Just something to think about. 

No one is perfect, and this brings me back to the summer heat.

Anyhow- if it takes 3-5 more seconds to complete the post- then go for it.  Don't shortchange others or yourself.

Sometimes you can learn from those who present odd ideas.   From those you disagree with.    

Anyhow- if it is not fun then it is work.  No one works for free.   So just some thoughts.    Particularly being that August is not far off.   

One can also edit a post for context.             Just something to consider- and know before any bad will is built up.

(I am not a moderator.  I just got thinking on recent threads)
