Umm.. Beleive me I sympathize with sentiments that
want to solve the whole Is-Pal conflict deal -- Maybe
wikipedia needs to have some special facilties to deal
with this particular debate -- in ways that emulate
real world attemps. It seems kinda silly though.
But in sharp and direct contrast to what some of the
helpful "suggestions" on this particular matter have
been -- I am more and more convinced with each passing
day that Celebrity deathmatches and fancy cages are no
solution, rather what we *really need now is -- love,
sweet love...
;)

If you put them all in a room together, with the
intent that they can
all come out when they've solved their differences,
it's almost a
certainty that far fewer will come out than went in.
:-D
Wasn't there a similar underlying idea in the 17th
century when the
English shipped their undesireables to Van Dieman's
land. :-)
As a matter of observation about Kenneð, I've
noticed from his
contribution list that not a single thing that he
has written has been
to a real article. Everything has been to User:,
Talk:, or Wikipedia:
pages.
