... in response to Deleted Threads Question for Patrick, posted by pablo on Aug 8, 2003No matter what I do, or do not do here on this message board which I run at a net loss, someone will complain. I try to give everybody a voice and try to keep many points of view on the board. If anything, I tend to err on the side of letting someone stay too long. To tell you the truth, I'm actually closer aligned with Aaron's approach and point of view than the majority of men on the board, who I feel are obsessed with sex. He simply became more of a detrement than asset to the flow of the dialog here and had to go.
Send me an e-mail. I won't read it, because I haven't read any e-mail here in months. All I do is occasionally log into the server and delete all the mail without downloading it. All communication with me must be through the message board.
I hope some day you marry and have a child of your own to understand how little a message board like this matters in the grand scheme of things. I will most likely continue to spend time with my family in the evenings rather than make any attempt to run a website such as this, which even if I were runing as a business operation would only generate around 1/10 of the per hour income that my real job as an engineer does. I certainly don't consider that, or any amount right now worth giving up the time I'm spending with my 4 month old daughter.
