Looks like it’s time for the occasional call for decorum regarding comments. A few simple guidelines:
- The focus of the discussion here is space policy. If there’s a relevant discussion about presidential candidates’ opinions on space policy, great. If it’s about politics and politicians in general, take if some place else.
- I have a personal preference that people sign their names to their comments, but have a stronger preference for thoughtful comments and discussion. That is, an on-topic, insightful comment from someone using a pseudonym is preferable to a signed comment that is an off-topic rant or a potshot at another participant in the discussion.
- Spellcheck is one of the late 20th century’s greatest inventions. Use it.
If this is too much to ask, I suggest taking your comments somewhere else. Thanks for your cooperation.
