ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area "Political Content"--can we get a clear definition please?

....that we're color-blind.

Can you imagine getting your red phase and your green ground wires mixed up?

*hides from Bill*

Bill when you say "it was heading South"...well just what does that mean? That the south is bad??? I am offended!

Not really, just had to throw that in. In the spirit of political correctness, just about anything can offend someone weather the offense is real or imagined. It is a shame (not to make someone feel bad) that we live in this type of climate (not that climate is bad) and cannot act like adults ( not that there is anything wrong with those who are not now, nor chose not to be adults)....well you get my point! Not that anything is wrong if it is not really a point but it is a tappered end....oh stop me someone please....not that it is..........

that's too funny........

"Headed south" ... "bad?"

I thought we were not allowed to talk about unions

I've been away from the site for a little while and unfortuately missed the "Story" thread. I just read through much of it and loved it!
I have to say though, I totally agree with NJ.
That was NOT "political". It was humor.

Heck, in today's world, if you can't make fun of dubya, who can you make fun of?

The idea here in my mind is this is an electrical site and while humor is certainly allowed we are not going to take any chances with any controversial subjects.

Yes that means that some fun things end up being off limits.

We have to remember we are not just sitting in our living room having a private conversation with our friends.

When we post here it is like standing in the middle of unknown, diverse crowd and shouting out our personal opinions without regard for others.

As was so well stated by Walrus


I could not say it better myself also there is no reason you can not email each other directly if you feel you must talk politics, unions, religion etc with members of this forum.

Bob, if you read that again I think you probably could say it a little better.
