Although I disagree with Serge's posts and find them annoying at times, as a hostess to this event I am surprised you let one of your guests be lynch mobbed without even an attempt to put a stop to it.
Apparently you haven't learned anything from the tragedies of your tribe:
First they came for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up, because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one left to speak up for me.

Hey DR Z, Why don't you be a good lad and edit your post. (Oh, do I miss the delete function?) By the way, I'm going to review our official roster, and if you're one of us, know some serious consequences are coming your way. Bea Turtle, Clones Against Serge, Charter MemberP.S. Apologies MLV, I'll edit my own post here just as soon as (hopefully) Dr. Zuess returns to his senses. You shouldn't have to do the email thing.  |

I am really sorry to see this. MLV, jcocktosten, and the Florida regulars are a great group of sweet people. You couldn't find a nicer gathering. They don't deserve this kind of treatment.
Just one more sip.

Do I still get the fruit basket?  I feel sorry you're taking it in such personal way and think you're grossly over reacting to few rather meaningless comments from people who don't really matter. Like Dr.Zeuss, for instance, whose registration date alone disqualifies anything he says. You are of course free to do what you wish and I can only add one thing - my intentions were noble and I stand by MY comments 100%... and I want that fruit basket. Good luck.  |

I look forward to enjoying many more meals with old frinds and new, but, unfortunately not from this board.
mlv, It would be a loss for this community if you go, but given the level of drivel spewed here I can't really say that I blame you. I'd ask you, and the other legitimate members of this community to just step around the dog droppings that are being left about and hang in there. They will eventually stop, and the dogs who are dropping them will go away. Don't let the trolls win.  PH |

It is a shame that this thread could not stay free of drivel, especially since being set up as the 2nd thread for a good intentioned offline - one that has been a long time coming I believe for us Floridians.
GO GATORS!!

I hope mlv doesn't leave. It will be this board's great loss if she does. Maybe a few emails to the WS people will help.
Just one more sip.

Just one more sip.

where in south florida is this going to be, and is it even still happening. I am in the panhandle, but will be in Orlando on the 8th and would consider making the drive if it wasn't too far and you would have me, I have never been to an offline before.

MLV -- I hope your event is absolutely fabulous. Sorry you have had to weather the thread deviation here to such an extreme. One of the reasons people leave an online community is because they get tired of stuff like this. Best of luck to you no matter what!
