Sceptical ex-lefties (I'm still around but being deleted like buggery) , "decent" leftists, cynics like the excellent Monkeyfish et al, have been all but exterminated.<br /><br />A number of the wits who Laban noted in his "CIF Cricket" post have also taken the pledge to go nowhere near the place again. Try Cif thread refugee for details.<br /><br />Laban.<br /><br />The "high water mark"? Oh Lord I wish it were so. But I fear that an astounding amount of damage is yet to be done. Remember 1945 and 1918 were the bloodiest years of the twin catastrophes.staybrytenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5187043.post-51527249996083340652009-05-03T12:26:00.000+00:002009-05-03T12:26:00.000+00:00It seems that CiF is going into clinical denial, w...It seems that CiF is going into clinical denial, with established posters not only being deleted but banned right, left and centre (if you'll pardon the expression) for failing to toe the party line.
