As far as the violation of the TOU, Jim B has often happily offered commentary as to what he considers violations of the TOU by those with whom he disagrees and perhaps he had not updated his understanding to include Tyler/Paul/Tom’s newest provision.
The sentence he quoted was authored by me and as far as I know (nor apparently any one else) has no connection to any words of Calley. My failure to include the “not” changed the intended meaning of my sentence and gave Jim B. his opportunity to understand it as written, rather than as my position was intended to be presented.
Rather than add words inside a quote box giving the appearance that the words where actually “Calley’s” (and it is clear that is exactly what occurred by Tom and david) he could have quoted my mis-speak and then commented outside and separate of the quoted material.
As to the origin of that provision of the TOU perhaps layback will elect to provide some of the background on the impetuous for its development and implementation, as if I recall correctly he was at least in part involved and perhaps even received an infraction related to those original circumstances.

Hey now- lets give credit where its due! Tom invented that rule to infract me for a post of mine that was critical of union teachers. Of course it was a retroactive rule because when I did my evil deed the rule had not been invented, and as far as I know has not been used against any other member, despite frequent blatant abuses. Sort of a "boutique" way of determining the rules. Reminds me of the way our current administration does things! Things will sort themselves out in 2012 just like they did here though
I wonder if all the eternally offended were as outraged when their homosexual hippie dope fiend comrades were spitting on Viet Nam Veterans. Somehow I doubt it. My policy when I was in the Army was EKSUAGBTW: EVERYONE KNOWS, SHUT UP AND GET BACK TO WORK. I feel sorry for most gays as they seem to spend an inordinate amount of time being offended, or looking for something to be offended about, in order to justify their hate for those who don't wish to validate their lifestyle. (which is, unfortunately, a majority of the population)
