While I have only been a member of TOTV for a few years, I have noticed that several folks will ask for a reference when an outrageous assertion is made. While it hasn't eliminated the comments, it does bring a focus onto the validity of the post. Unfortunately, there is something about human nature that allows some individuals to spew nastiness when done as an anonymous post. This was true when I first looked at the internet in pre World Wide Web days and it is true today. I can't control the actions of anyone else (especially not my kids!) but I can only try to model the behavior I wish to see in others. Please stay active - the TOTV community needs you.
