RG staff:  great post/explanation:  One of the really clever features of the Civil Comments format is the "passing of the buck" to US....the poster/commenters on the site.  If one of our posts doesn't "pass" peer review and, based on its incivility,  isn't published,  we can't blame it on those "damn PC jerks at the RG", or those "damn CC thought-police".  To paraphrase Pogo, "we have met the censor and it is us."........regards and, again, thanks for providing us all the opportunity to exchange ideas and comments on this site......
