I've been spending far more time, and energy, trying to clean that thread up then i would like too. In all honesty, the original post was a cut and paste of Carlos Castaneda derived books. The thread progresses as four pages of in your face arguments. Ive done some cleaning beyond post 35 of the more problematic parts, and combined several short posts... but in truth, whatever your intent was with it, it is really beyond pruning back to health (as it goes into confrontation from the very start). So that said, you have a few other options. We can move the thread to new seers, where you can mod it and edit it as you see fit, we can remove it to oblivion, we can delete every post (with a copy saved in oblivion) after the lead post, or we can change it to the edited version we have completed. You can also start again, repost the information, and we can remove this version. If you do that, however, i would suggest just make the first post (as this is the rule of the eagle section) here and than we lock it to comments, and instead make a link to a version (discussion thread on this topic) you can moderate as you see fit in new seers. That way the information is where it needs to be (rule of the eagle section), and any arguments or perspective on the information can have appropriate distance.
