even with 4 wheel drive and traction control on I was still all over...

It took me about an hour to get to work in "rush hour" traffic yesterday and it normally takes 15-20 minutes. It was a nightmare! Driving back home wasn't as bad. Today was a pain driving in too!

As we don't get to see the staff forums the answer seems to be yes. In reality the answer is no. It is rare I have seen a staff member who did not agree with the action taken be forced to be the one to make contact but I have seen many debates over whether any action should be taken at all. So no it doesn't reflect on the team as a whole. It can reflect on a majority of the team that was online at the time the decision was made but one can never know when the decision was made and who all was on at that time.

If all mod decisions are team decisions, then the rest of the team should serve as a check on a renegade/corrupt staffer, should it not?

Many staff operate under the assumption that it is easier to apologize than to ask permission. Not all actions are team actions. Although they are supposed to be this by no means the case.

That's the theory; how's the practice?

Practice, as stated, in nothing like the theory.

I checked your avatar earlier today when I saw one of your CF posts. I was like "oh, that must be the eeeevil temptress!!" Honestly, I had to get a magnifying glass out to see much cleavage. lol

Some folks really and seriously need to get a freakin LIFE!!!!

Since Monday, I've had 4 hours or less sleep per night. Yesterday morning, I passed into the zone of noticable impairment of attention and reaction time.

Sometime last night, I entered the zone of fogheadedness, occasional incoherence and/or public displays of poor judgement.

I've had the presence of mind to stay out of areas of CF where poor judgement could have consequences to my membership-in-good-standing.

If I've confused and/or offended here at IIDB in the last 18 or so hours, I abjectly apologize. Please let me know if there are cases where I need to do something a more concrete than grovel.

That's not good Raven. It'd probably be better to skip teh interwebs all together and just get yourself a nice long nap. It really helped me get over my sickness yesterday, plus sleep debt can have some pretty nasty physiological effects: decrease in immune system function, higher blood pressure, concentration problems, memory problems, etc. Best to just sleep it off.

Definitions of things get changed all the time.

BTW, the assertion marriage "has always been between a man and a woman" is a patent falsehood. It's "mostly" been between a man and one or more women.

We just did the thing about Jacob's 12 sons in Sunday School. One conservative woman had difficulty with the part about how some of them had different mothers
