Hi David Jackson: If you remember, back when you started this forum, my worry was that the purpose would be to limit discussion, by censorship, to only those topics that you chose... as opposed to the open and free discussions found elsewhere, such as on my voynich.net mailing list.
You strongly objected, and told me that there would be no censorship, and that your readers would be allowed to express all opinions and viewpoints, as long as no one was being rude, or threatening, or whatever.
But now you cut off the discussion on the thread I started? You wrote,
"OK, without being rude, ReneZ here develops theories based upon the physical evidence he has seen and handled.
Everything else in this thread is a hypothesis that is based the posters opinion of third party evidence.
Let's stick to concrete evidence people, instead of building castles in the air.
Thread locked before it become contentious."

If by "contentious" you mean negative or nasty in any way, it is clear this didn't happen, and was not happening. But if by "contentious" you mean further disagreement, then of course... that is what free discussion is about. I came back to the thread to continue that discussion, and was very surprised to see it locked. I hope you will reconsider, and unlock that thread, and place the below responses from me an others over there, if you choose... or let the discussion continue, here.
Ironically, I only the other day suggested to the writers of a new book on the Voynich, that your ninja forum link be added to that book, so that people could come here and see the free discussion that you promised, and convinced me was the case. Was that a mistake?
Rich.
