Some of you may have noticed I deleted a recent thread regarding a bill before Congress.

While I feel we certainly need to keep our representatives accountable and I like nothing more than to debate political issues, this Forum is not an appropriate place for those discussions.  Unfortunately, such discussions invariably degenerate no matter how diplomatic and careful we try to be.

So, even though I believe the majority of the members of this Forum could handle such a discussion better than most other places on the web, we request that political issues not be presented here.

Thanks!
