I really like Adam, always enjoy the podcasts. I took a position from the start that it was a massive overaction, which resulted in us being massively over punished for a minor transgression. Others clutched pearls and signalled their virtue to anyone who would listen. Others were genuinely shocked and horrified (better people than me), but I'd have to say those people must have lead very protected lives.
There are some posters I really like, but took the completely opposite position to me, there are others that changed position as the dust settled. I decided to just move on a start again with everyone starting with a clean sheet. I agree Blackmore should have stayed a bit more objective in his position, but he's an emotional man and that is part of his appeal.
I'd have to compliment Steve Grant ,of the TSP, for keeping balance and perspective throughout.
