text: Wow - the Post's Meow Meow Beenz experiment has gone haywire in a hurry. If you dare to vote a comment "civil" that the Post editors have deemed offensive you will be kicked off the site. Don't worry Posties, soon you will cleanse all us folks who don't march lockstep with you off the boards. 
  
  Definition of civil - "adequate in courtesy and politeness."   I don't see anything there about having to agree with the political and social beliefs of those you are addressing. 
  
  The Post will cease to exist soon in any event. It is a sad time when an "alternative" tabloid like the Westword presents more and better journalism than the local paper of record.
