NYC has one food coop, Paris, which is way smaller, has several. When I go to Paris, I hang out in the mostly arab/african Northeastern Paris, which is also full of the kind of ferment we haven't seen here in decades. Have you ever lived in Paris for years, or is this just more snark? Sounds like snark...cute. I love the ignorant, nasty, rude boorish provincial "Parisian Experts" of Brooklyn. So cute!!!

MOD NOTE: Last warning. If you can't manage to make your point without name calling, find another message board. You'd think someone with an Ivy League education might be able to argue their case on its merits.

You let one consistently snarky poster (Belzm?) provoke people who post with opposite opinions so that the discussion becomes an argument between an opposite opinion and Belzm. The discussion shuts down. A poster asked a question and Anniewilde answered it. Obviously people shouldn't respond to Belzm but it can be hard when someone is playing the role of provocateur and being snide. Snide comments breed snide responses.

There's a difference between attacking someone's point of view and attacking the person. Anniewilde crossed that line.

BTW, WTGirl, if you don't click the "Disable HTML in this post" and "Disable BBCode in this post" boxes below the text field in your message, the quotes, styles and other tags will work properly. I fixed your post (above) for you.

Oops thanks.

See your point but Belzm has a tendency to attack and you don't step in for some reason.

We try, but we can't catch everything. At any time, if you think someone is violating the rules, you can PM a moderator with a link or quote of the post in question.
