Civility rears its ugly head!

Wow!

Little bored tonight waiting for the impending Northeaster so I was reading some of the past years speed limit debates.

Maybe its just me but this year's debate seems much more civil! Not being privy to Don's editing key, I don't know how many posts he may have had to modify or delete, but the tone this year seems much more neighborly.

I don't think many minds have been swayed and maybe everyone is getting tuckered out. But it is much easier to me this year to look at both sides of the issue when the hostility is cranked back a few notches.

Tip of the hat to Don, one of the best "behind the scenes" moderators out there!

And thanks to our point-counter-pointers out there for being a wee bit nicer this time around....you all know who you are!
