Allow me to begin with this: This website is primary about SoWal and the surrounding area. Everything else belongs in the Lounge as clearly stated in the Forum title in which this thread was started. "Local education and issues about the beaches, the bay, and in between - coastal dune lakes, wetlands, dunes, weather, flora & fauna." If we want to read the national editorials, we would go to a news website or pick up a newspaper. My post which you quoted, above, is simply explaining that to you since you are new to this message board. In that post, I never used such harsh words regarding you, unlike you did to me throughout your entire post. You obviously don't like to follow Kurt's basic rules and this post of yours might be enough to get you banned forever. My simple advice to you is that if you don't like this website, please go to the panama city beach one, and see if they will let you in over there. I hear that they are a little more particular about who they let in, but it would be worth a try. For someone who repeatedly stated that you just want everyone to get along, you sure aren't making that an easy chore. Me? a Wanabe Socialite? Not true. I try to avoid all of that hoopla, but sometimes, I cannot help myself.
