    Perhaps you should stick this thread as well. It seems out-of-sight, out-of-mind still reigns in some circles.
    What the genteel demand is something of themselves. What the vulgar demand is something of others.

    It has been my experience that those who proclaim the world is going to hell in a handbasket are the same ones who are leading the way there with their grip fixed firmly on the handle.

    It is stuck, more or less. There is direct link to it in the first sticky. I guess maybe I should change the format of that sticky so that the Important links are all in one place...

    It would seem there are some who would not go looking for the information contained in this thread prior to posting. Perhaps, if it greeted their eyes every time they entered the forum, they might get the idea eventually that the content is if significance and valued.

    That's true, eventually I'll edit the first sticky to contain the link first and foremost.

    This isn't a rule thread... Its a thread about avoiding logical fallacies, and bad debating tactics..

    Re: A List of Bad Debating Tactics, and a Recipe for Reasoned Thought. ALL READ PLEASE!

    Seeing as how election time is drawing closer, and we've been getting a bit riled up, I just thought I'd give this thread a loving bump for all our new (and old!) members to see. Read it.

    Have a good one guys. Keep your chins up, don't let TLR get to you during your day! We're all really friends here anyway, right?

    In light of the upcoming election, and ss a last ditch effort to lend some reason to this forum before I go and study for my midterms, I'm stickying this thread.
    Hopefully the newer members can get something out it. ST may feel the need to unsticky it when he gets back. Have a good three weeks guys.
