Therein lies the problem, to have an alter ego, it must be consistent. It is hard work; it requires effort!

Good point. You are ethical but others are not - and thereby stands the whole matter. Feel free to continue as before, both of you - why not?

Back to the point about work. Most of us really have far too much to do to spend time chasing shadows on such things as these fora. I for one would truly love to have so much "free" time that I could do certain things, such as build a really good circumcision FAQ to my liking. Perhaps it doesn't matter, others have done it - NOCIRC and such, but sometimes it surprises me that there are overall so few of us actually "manning" this site - and FatherMag.

Obviously it takes a certain determination to spend time here rather than elsewhere As I write, I should be rebuilding my business server machine - and of course I will, and I will do so as my very next task.

Nevertheless, how galling it is to see others who apparently have just so much time to fritter away, that they can collate such utter garbage as some of the truly dangerous and stupid advice comprising that site? Fortunately, it turns back to bite himself, as most can see that the quotes he has collated are perfectly sensible themselves, while his rants are anything but.
