@ Eric_Paulson (and others, Like CAGIV who emailed me but I haven't received and answer from the tech group) -- Is FHB planning on letting any of the banished back in to the forum?

I'm not ruling it out. There may be a technical issue that people banned can't come back. I'm waiting to hear.

Mike Smith (I think, I received a lit of emails today) suggested an amnesty. I might consider a non-denominational-holiday present once some new ground rules are set.
