I find this forume interesting and educative. It should be continued. Those who don't like it may opt out.
Regarding monitoring the messages, I believe that at this level, self control would be the best monitor. We do not want to be like the politicos, who at he slightest provocation resort to personal attacks. For the opposition, the government in power is always wrong. Re. Janagraha, I have said before that many highly educated young men and women (including foreign visitors) are (or have been) Janagrah volunteers and they are proud to be associated with that institution. They are elitist; but this shouldn't be a blemish on the good work they have done, or continue to do. One example is Bala Janagrah.

However there have been individual attacks that can be banned. Only difference of opinions on issues, particularly dearer to CAF may be exchanged. Once in a way some deviation from the set issues should be permitted, not prolonging too much. It is like a speaker getting out of track. Yes, there can be a monitor who can intervene and say “ stop this discussion” may be more polite. The Monitor’s mail is final. V may select/elect the monitor during the next meeting. He/she can be like a speaker in Parliament.
