If a short weighs the same as a duck, burn them!!!!!!!!!! j/k
I agree with SuperDrive. I think all opinions should be welcomed and openly debated. Heck, shorts and cynics give us something to talk about on a boring, low volume day. They also, on occasion, stir up useful debate.
I participate on the board for debate, DD, and to stay up on current events. Group think doesn't interest me - so I think we should focus on welcoming diverse opinions. If you think someone is FOS, call out their opinions, not their intentions. I think most of us here are intelligent enough to figure out who is short and who is long :)
