So, having had at least three post removed in recent days what can I say? The Brits given their interventions the world over and the appropriations from those places might want to return, or, at least, share, a little something? Is that really too much to ask?

Is it the best one can expect: that maybe you were heard; that, the beeb is a vehicle or medium of amplification at best for the purpose one may have used it. yet, it reachs only a small fraction of people after all. and who knows what motivates them and how many of them will take even a farthing worth of action to change what is done or is to be done?

even when you reach someone and they appear to care or just do an 'ahaa,' it does not mean you were understood or that, if you were understood, it was in the way you intended to be understood.

many signals reach each of us and we try to make sense of these by using what we know of the world and its phenomena yet I am sure that even if we see or hear something with absolute clarity we may not have the tools to understand or to make something with or to take action on the message, whether we understand all or whether we understand only a little glimmer of what was sent out.

that does not mean we stop doing what we do and know to be correct, at least not until we know that it is not.

Wahoo, it didn't go poof!!!!!

"Now where Have I heard that before? A call for Members of a community to rally together and provide a united front against a common enemy."

No enemies Starbirth - Merely pointing out that the BBC has recieved an awful lot for nothing from this community, and has handled the situation most clumsilly in return, and has not tried to make ammends. The only reply to the situation other than the cut and paste repetitions of the orginal policy was from an italic suggesting that anyone who believed someone would resign their post over a matter of principle was somehow horribly naive. They also indicated that the price of their resignation would be the end of H2G2 - however temporarily - and that we should be grateful that there hasn't been mass resignations. Perhaps if this point had been made to those implementing the policy from above, it may have bought some leverage. As it is, it comes across like someone telling off some unruly kids who can't think for themselves. True, without them there would be no H2G2 - but the reverse is also true.
Without *us* there would be no H2G2.
