So dont be shy Look forward to hearing from new friends......until then guilty as charged is signing off....... no thats...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/townsquare/617960I've been off the air for about 10 days now. My house and the power line and the internet lines were struck by huge lightning bolts on Thurs. and Friday a week back. I had no computer after the electtrical storm and rain. There were many losses and you may read my story on the news according to...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/townsquare/615308We dealt with this in private, but since it’s been taken public by one member, here’s what happened. As you may know, over the past couple of weeks (and even much earlier), a number of Blogit members have found large amounts of text written by other authors in the blog written by Bhaskar.ing. As...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/townsquare/614957When using text by other authors, please post only a brief excerpt of the content (e.g. a paragraph) -- not most (or all) of the content -- using quotation marks to make it clear it's not your own work.

Since it seems to be confusing...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/townsquare/611482Other sites are less tolerant and still have brisk and intelligent discourse. I think it does not advance the site. This site has paying members, and when one complains about being harassed, other members tell them to stand up for themselves? That's like having a drunk come out of the bar into a...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/townsquare/611418in this controversy over Zenmom's comments. You know where. I remember the Smothers Brothers and their fight against CBS censorship. They may have lost, bit they paved the way for more open expressions, such as Norman Lear's "All in the Family" and Archie Bunker. I have complained just once --...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/townsquare/611383As much as I dislike what ZenMom wrote in these comments that you've posted here, I dislike more your slapping a red letter on her chest by posting her comments here and encouraging everyone to read them with a big yellow link in the home page. If she broke the rules of the site, enough said. Why...http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/townsquare/611336Dear Blogit and fellow 'Blogiteers', Personally, I just want to write and illustrate my poetry - but this is too important right now so I am coming out of my poetry cocoon to put in my two cents worth on censorship. In defense of the woman who said 'Godbot' (a clever word I'd never heard before),...
