I recuse myself from CFJ 3862. I was considering DISMISSing this because I think that the statement isn't appropriate for a CFJ, so it is malformed, but I'm not sure that's an appropriate use of it, so I'd like to give someone else an opportunity to address this. I don't think that a CFJ is the best venue for answering this sort of question given that its not really a question that could impact any internal aspect of the gamestate and there are different positions that could all be equally valid, therefore I encourage Cuddlebeam and others interested in expressing themselves on this question to instead write a thesis. -- ---- Publius Scribonius Scholasticus, Herald, Referee, Tailor, Pirate Champion, Badge of the Great Agoran Revival, Badge of the Salted Earth
