Poll question: Should the Mission Statement for Skepticism, Science, and Pseudoscience Group be Modified/Updated?
Edited on Thu Mar-26-09 09:17 PM by Heddi
EDITED TO SIMPLIFY

Should the mission statement for this group be modified to be in line with the other, more exclusionary topic forums at DU?

5. Fargo, ND. I moved away when I could, it is having a record flood and snow and crap
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=5337836&mesg_id=5337836

I'm getting off the computer and going to drink wine by the fire with a trashy book.

I was in a category 5 tornado there when I was a toddler, got out of school to help sandbag dikes with 4rd highest flood on record, now I am watching this from here. On the positive side, we sold the family home last fall and got aging parent moved to another state.
