I haven't been political on Hive at all. I really don't like conflict. But I have to take a stand, not a stand that is confrontational but one that elucidates a rational position. This won't move any votes. But I had to say it. When I read your post last night I was glad I had drafted this (it took a couple of days to write, to get the resources and quotes).

If we want other people to stand up, then I guess we have to be prepared to take the flack.

Thanks for commenting. Wishes us luck this year, although I am quite anxious about the signs out there.
