I also didn't say that Hoosier NEVER posts opinions - only that it is RARE... which it is.

There also seems to be a misconception that I'm a "newbie" as some like to say. Well, rest asured that I have been around GC for almost two years but recently had to re-register because of technical issues.

Post all of the articles you want - just take a look at the spirit of the presentation. Don't just light a fire and watch it burn. Maybe some of you have seen the car insurance commercial (I believe it's Geico) where the squires are intentially causing car accidents - that's what I feel like when I see titles like the one on this thread. And it's not the only time that it's happened - it's just that this one was in exceptionally bad taste in my opinion and appeared to be an attempt to pit one fraternity against another - ON A NATIONAL LEVEL.

Hoosier - thanks for your candid reply earlier. I actually did appreciate the humor with which it was written.

Thank you, and good night.
Eh, well, from your post it sure came across like you were knocking Hoosier and I know I'm not the only one that got that message.

When you put an emphasis on "VERY rare" I consider that to mean basically "never." It shouldn't have to matter if he posts an opinion or not, this isn't "OpinionGreekchat.com."

Lastly, I never made any reference to you being a "newbie." I don't really have an interest in the duration of time you've been lurking on gc.
