An Important Rule

I expect everyone here to be respectful, articulate and coherent. No long, rambling comments and no rudeness; no libel, no plagiarism; and nothing boring. I'll borrow Absolute Write’s central rule and insist that everyone here respects their fellow writers; I will delete all comments which don't comply. However, I do encourage lively debate, so please don't think we have to always agree with each other: just keep it sensible and we should be fine.
