I have noticed that certain individuals have been "minused" for no reason at all. It is clear to me that this is a carry over from animosity developed in the SETI boards. Allow me to stand up and say clearly that I protest.

I wrote much more but decided to erase it in the spirit of peace.

I "plussed" back these persons back to "0".

For Heaven's sake, let's leave it at that for now and ever.

We had a similar outbreak a couple of weeks ago - see the 'Analize' thread.
I gathered a couple of minuses after that but seems I was plussed back up too!

The minusing is coming from a

The minusing is coming from a very small number of board users...The pattern that is being seen is consistant what we have seen in the past...It's a way of lashing out and creating drama that was abused to death over at SETI...I hope that the minusing function will be eliminated here too...Until then just ignore the minusers...They really hate it when we do that.
