Agora I am one of ptsczza's harshest critics. But I don't believe he should be banned for using the "D" word. This particular poster is well known for his often irrational exuberance, so please forgive this particular instance.
So if he was banned for using the "D' word and not for some other reason, please delete that particular post and lift the ban.
I am sure he is sufficiently chastened.
