Yes. I want to add my 2 cents though. I'm voting yes because you can't make a choice about something you don't know about. If you don't like the thread then you can trash it.... your choice. Having said that... I've watched Linda moderate ... sometimes aggressively ... for a while now and usually agree with her descisions. Wether a thread gets zapped or not **depends on the thread**. I do not think that *all* threads should be let alone to die naturally.... but that's *my* opinion. If I think a thread should be killed off I can always say so. Having said *that*.. :-) I think that being a moderator is a terrible responsibility and I could never do it. I'm very proud of being in this group and that there have been NO flames in all the while I've been a member. Keep it up Linda you're doing a bloody great job!!! ... and I don't think there will be many that dissagree. That this vote is happening at all is a tribute to you and an example to others.
