I would personally like to give CS a much deserved 10!!! The mails, flowers, e-Cards, emoticons, Forums, posting of pics in threads and many other features besides are excellent!! It is, in my view, the BEST site around. BUT.....
I will give a 9.9, simply because of just 2 things:
1. No facility to make "All Threads" a personal default.
2. An imbalance, it would seem, of the leniency afforded some that clearly push the boundaries a little too far when, comparatively, others are reprimanded for much less.
I agree, Nick, with what you say about their "posh lifestyles". Its the system that's wrong but I don't believe capital punishment is an appropriate alternative just because the systme fails miserably. It needs a jolly good shale-up, in my view?!
I wouldn't dream of going easy on them, NO!! It'd be hard labour ALL the way....
A long, hard life of penance and atonement is what would go some way to paying the price.... not a quick "zip" out of this life.... too much the easy option!!
RE: An updated version of 'The Little Red Hen'
Good one, Pat!! Loved it....A little of George Orwell's "Animal Farm" springs to mind also.
I particularly liked the grunting reference to Ted Kennedy!!
