Homelessness is a terrible thing...[Or, tabulae rasae, a mixed discussion...]

kpaul, I must apologize if my previous post seemed like I didn't heed this warning. I quoted and posted immediately after I read OWO's post to me. I should have finished the thread first I guess. I am not looking to cause any distress. I just love a good language debate. (Even though this was supposed to be about homelessness! LOL)

But, but, but,  isn't it tabUla rasa?

@ MAK - No apology needed. I don't want to see problems that aren't there, but perhaps it has spurred us in another direction on this thread. And that's the beauty of a good forum, I guess.

re: Tabula - Indeed. Perhaps even should've been tabulae rasae! ;)

Touche.

I think that was part of it, though ... making a post about someone's mistake then making a post with a mistake. You were right on that, I think.

I wonder if we chilled OWO completely? I do think we handled it well? Who knows. Moving along...

I think you're an excellent moderator kpaul. Even if Irish will come back and say I'm a brown noser.

Thanks!

Luckily we don't have a smiley for that ... yet. Heh.

This community is really all about you guys, though. You're the stars.

I always wanted to be a star....I wanted to be the North Star, but it was already taken. :(

star is taken as well so
north by northeast?

It's 5 - 7 - 5, Honey!
