Why there is such strong support, for two or three members to post messages in such a fundamentally bad writing style, is a mystery to me.
The overall signs of the times are that it is time to bow out. The administration efforts have been chewing up too much time and too much of my limited intellectual abilities.
I had been trying to negotiate the return of Contracycle. I think he has much to offer this forum. Now, in the tradition of departing Presidents, I have fully restored Contracycle's membership privileges. I am also sending him an e-mail informing him of my action. If Contracycle returns, I hope it works out better than in the past - Time will tell.
I have also granted the non-admin mode, minnemooseus, read only access to the "Private Administration Forum".
The Adminnemooseus and minnemooseus ID's have been unlinked. Shortly after this message is posted, the Adminnemooseus member status will be changed from "Director" to "Member" and all post privileges for the Adminnemooseus account will be suspended.

As you probably noticed, my resignation lasted about a week.
Reasons I decided I wanted "Moderator" status back:
1) So I could do editing functions such as fixing coding errors, overlong URL's, and other bad message formatting.
2) So that I has posting privileges in the "Private Administration Forum".
I had intended to be very low profile. But of course, once I had "Moderator" status again, I was doomed to get sucked back into other admin chores, including the Contracycle business. Still, I have tried to minimize my "admining".
By the way, Contracycle has decided to totally withdraw from . While the position he was taking might have had considerable merit, the practical reality was that he needed to compromise his ideals and try to leave certain problems in the past. For better or worse, this was something he was unwilling to do.
The bottom line of it all is that I have been blowing way too much time on the internet, with much of that being related. As of the end of the month I expect all that to change - I am planning on discontinuing my ISP. No more at home internet - My internet activity will be restricted to using a friends ISP. My active e-mail address will be my currently unused Yahoo account.
Or something like that.
