Eric,
Usually willing to put it out there.
Opinions or perspective are perfect for this forum, hyperbole, vitriole and attacks
without basis in fact are not. This a discussion forum by it's definition
Discussion
1. talk between people: talk or a talk between two or more people about a subject
2. spoken or written examination of topic: a detailed consideration or
examination of a topic in writing or speech
What I have seen:
hy�per�bo�le [ hi
p�rb?lee<http://encarta.msn.com/encnet/features/dictionary/Pronounce.aspx?search=hyperbole>
]
noun
exaggeration: deliberate and obvious exaggeration used for effect,
for example, "I could eat a million of these"
[15th century. Via Latin from Greek huperbole "excess," literally
"overthrow," from ballein "to throw."]
and
vit�ri�ol [ v�ttree
�wl<http://encarta.msn.com/encnet/features/dictionary/Pronounce.aspx?search=vitriol> ]
(plural vit�ri�ols)
noun
1. bitter hatred: extreme bitterness and hatred toward somebody or
something, or an expression of this feeling in speech or writing
Do you ever wonder why, seven council people and their seven aides, seven
county commissioners and their aides, and Mayor's staff rarely if ever post but may
lurk?
However, the discussion of LRT is one of the best I have read on this
forum.
Dan believes that when something is being built is also when the process
started, the funding for the Rondo Library was passed last year not this year.
But Dan still refuses to answer the question, what liberal progressive
actions did the council quash?
Still waiting.

Gerry wrote the above while answering Dan. Dan is not
a moderator off this forum and anyone is free to post
their opinion or perspective.
Do tell what are the lesser reasons this forum lacks
credibility, and who gages the credibility of a public
forum based on opinions and perspectives?
Let's see if you're willing to put it out there.
