While the animals might be gone (I've not been by the fields to verify), so is the entire thread from the last fews days reflecting someone's rage and overreaction against anyone unfortunate enough to be standing closer to the fences than she thought prudent. Also deleted were the intelligent comments recommending prudence and a more reasonable, instructive approach to people viewing the buffalo.

How come? While the conversation/monologue did get testy at times, it was nothing compared to the diatribes in the "Politics" forum, especially when someone dares to disagree with Larry, Moe, and Shemp or one of their acolytes. And the horse was pretty much out of the barn. Most anything that would be said was already out there. Nothing new was coming. Was deleting the thread an attempt to clean up the archives, to make it appear that we don't have familial conflict? Is mom coming to visit and we want to look good for her?
