That should be a heading in the masthead.  I never had any idea that normal, standard HTML formatting wasn't allowed.
We are so far past and beyond the “long train of abuses and usurpations” that the Colonists and Founders experienced and which necessitated the Revolutionary War that they aren’t even visible in the rear-view mirror.

If you can't toss out a link then it's not a place worth commenting at. I had read their rules quite a while back and have never bothered to comment there. They have good articles from time to time...some of them very good but the comment restrictions are too reminiscent of CT for my liking. Makes me imagine that CG runs the place.
In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

...Makes me imagine that CG runs the place.

If you remember, it was one of his favorite places from which to pull topics.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Too bad IDP, in the end the readers there are the losers, not you.  At least we have your wisdom recorded here!
