I DID NOT SAY THAT!
In no way at any time at any point in any post that I have made on this topic!
Now, in rereading the thread, I see that it wasn't you that made the folded paper towel comment, putting the ponytail up, or any others like that. I'll admit, I don't always pay close attention to who writes what, for the most part, so sorry for that oversight. Plus it's been a few days since the thread was started, so I probably wouldn't have remembered who said what anyway.
Therefore, I'll restate. On mouseplanet, the minute anyone does make that type of suggestion (i.e. paper towels, ponytails, cowboy boots, hover shoes), there is a flood of posts about how that's teaching kids to lie...etc. That didn't happen here, and I thought that was interesting, that's all. Nothing more, nothing less.
The Grateful Dead used to do a song called "And We Bid You Goodnight", and the audience clapped along with the chorus. But on the west coast, they clapped differently than on the east coast. I find that interesting, too.
That said, I still think I was very clear in stating that the three of us, me, myself and I, were not judging anyone on either board. Just commenting on how different groups of similar people don't always respond the same way. Nothing more, nothing less.
I bid you goodnight.
