I realize that the shark metaphor was mine, but I think you know I was speaking abstractly about posters who disrupt. Do you really think of me as a shark? Though I may have bitten a few people, I am hardly a predatory killer that others fear here. God, at least I hope not.

Yes, acceptance, that's important to me. And Babble is indeed a place where acceptance is commonplace.

I'm too far down the food chain to understand this one. Maybe someone else can interpret for me.

You are alpha shark, Bob (so how's that T-shirt project coming?). And Babble is a good cause.
