100. As long as we don't confuse self-restraint with passive aggression.

I've been reading this exchange between you and Pabs Sugenis and thought I'd stop by.

You and I disagree about the issue of tombstoning. If Skinner brought them back, that should be good enough reason for them to be eligible for leaderships roles in this group. Especially when they're asked to continue to put up with this kind of judgment without proper context. Skinner never mentioned "self-restraint" regarding those who were included in the mass tombstoning -- quiet the opposite actually.
