I want to stare at the seaside and do nothing at all

Quite Right

On the money! As usual, a brilliant cutting [1] of a Gordian Knot. Thanks. Dr. Dan (talk) 21:13, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good to see you're still lurking. :) MastCell ^Talk 21:39, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, this is almost like old home week. It is a pleasure to see your name on my watchlist, and I hope to keep seeing it. Risker (talk) 21:52, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well Done, Sir

With "They are also entitled to put ferrets down their pants and dance the hornpipe" you almost made me spit Chicken in a Biskit crackers and Pepsi at my computer screen. Well Done, Sir! :) - Neutralhomer • Talk • 21:44, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What he said above, but (as I'm over 18) red wine in my case. Giacomo 22:36, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously not an American, since the legal drinking age here is 21. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 22:40, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pile-on, but I have a cold and am drinking hot tea. "Entitled does not mean sensible." indeed. KillerChihuahua^?!?Advice 22:41, 7 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Expired Ban and Probation

[2]

Thatcher; This ban is now long expired, and actual events on the ground have given the lie to certain positions promoted by the unbanned side of the related content dispute (among them, that the people outside Russia are so superior that meltdown will never happen in developed countries.) "I listed how the people in American plants are different - reliance on insurance, independent inspectors, lack of incentive for malfeasance. You know all these things and continue to ignore them. Simesa 2 July 2005 21:28 (UTC)" [[3]] So according to Wikipedia's preferred POV, "the people" "are different", and that difference explains safe or unsafe operation. These are people who risked their lives in hand-sewn lead-suits in 45 second one-time shifts to scoop hot uranium off the roof. [4]

My opinion remains that the Arbcom turned a content dispute into a personal vendetta - scrubbing government-sourced content in the bargain - such as the navy manual on the effects of radiation, (by changing the case title from content to a single named individual), which is a brutal personal attack. But I have respected both, and ask that you now respect the expiration and take down the Ban Banners on these articles. I even promise to be nicer to others than they are to me :) Benjamin Gatti (talk) 13:57, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
