J. South,
If one self-censures, there is no need for outside censureship. Complaining
about the posts of others whether because it doesn't interest oneself, or
calling other posters or authors "Liars" for their point of view, are not
indicative of self-censureship.
It is important to note that some of us have been around on this list since
its beginning, and are all to aware of how to push someone else's buttons.
Doing so now and then can be an amusing topnote to the discussion. Digging
in with it, is no longer amusing.
Again, as Catherine Moore pointed out, all things in moderation.
