I can tell from some of the responses so far that this has struck a nerve, and we don't have a policy here at this time about questioning moderation publicly, so I, June am saying that in this case, I would welcome thoughts on how this thread topic might be handled in a different way, as long as there is no vilification of the thread starter and people are respectful and insightful.

Tappin' My Way Out,

When I first read the title, I was not sure if they meant "fuck" by "tap". Once I read the thread, I realized that was the meaning.

My first reaction was not a good one.
My second one was to back up and ask myself if it was hurting me on a personal level.
My third was to realize that maybe some of us need to express this part of ourselves like this.
My fourth was to not read in this thread again until I saw you had posted. Then, of course, my curiosity won.

I like that you asked . My answer is that I think sometimes there will be a need for this kind of energy outlet.

A 12 year old lives inside of most of us and sometimes that youthful energy needs an out. (not the most helpful answer but there you are. Moderating sucks, doesn't it?)

As for whom I would like to tap? I will go with the definition of "go to for knowledge and advice" as others have and say Eleanor Roosevelt and Julius Caesar.

When I read the thread title I really didn't put much thought into it as being offensive. I think I am safe to say Andrew's intentions always come from a place of love and authenticity. I joined in for fun and support. I am scratching my peanut head wondering what may/is offensive about it? I am asking for my own obtuse and sometimes falling short of the mark kinda guy?
