I pulled the link, not because it links to another forum, but because we really don't need to be stalking Todd.

Being from Katy, weren't you torn between rooting for the Texans and Andy Dalton.

Brad, this forum is ceasing to be a place of interest, and becoming another Facebook where everyone spills their most "soap-opera" like moments.

Really?

Please look inward at the posts you make on other people's threads... on their work. It is possible to give a negative critique without being negative. It is possible to express a concern without attacking.

This forum has lost too many good souls over the years to this kind of idiocy. Please, help make it stop.

I do have a question that relates to the closed thread, and in extention, this policing. (sorry for just now seeing this thread)

Is it against the law to have a fire in a national park? From what I can tell, the Arches wasn't in a burn ban and I can't find anything about that on their site. This can affect my future photography efforts should I go to a national park.

I would hate to break a law or worse, receive criticism from the morality police!
