1. um, ok, hello meta refugee

Here, help yourself to a little catnip. The hors d'ouevres are this way. And, most important of all, the litter box is way over there, outside.

2. I have a theory about the ditching of Meta: That the esteemed proprietors

have wanted this website to be classy and for us to behave as self-actuating, responsible adults who handle our own problems and that Meta was the worst of our worst sides, that they didn't want the role of Nanny to us? But contrary to those who think we Libs are "better"/more moral/more pure than others, all of us are "all too human" (NIETZSCHE) or just plain "JUST human," a mixture of all things good and evil like everybody and anybody else (including wingnuts), and our bad side is just as much bloodlust as there was in Roman circuses.
