Is this all really necessary? Let Tom post what he wishes; there is no law against paranoia, whining and perpetual discontent. No law against being grumpy. I personally have no problem with Tom being gay, but he whines too much about it. I, for one, did not bother to read his dissertation after I saw he was going; too tiring. First whining and disrespect about alcoholism in other countries, then whining about what he called the God-given rights of gays, then whining there is no God. I am confused. Where does this ever end? Tommaso, how about posting a nice article on tall ships. That is something you know a lot about and most of the rest of us are intrigued! If you post several pages we will read them all! Don’t fuss about these other issues about which you know nothing and are forced to invent facts. We love you, Tom! Don’t always be so crabby! 😊
