you've made awesome contributions. You already have got your way more often than not and that's impressive. You are in no way at fault here, that's been demonstrated. I look forward to your continued edits. Oh, and if you don't like my recent move of the Marxist thing we can most certainly take that up again. Wikpedia never really stays put.

You seem to be getting ahead of yourself again, sir. I hope, once this SPI is closed, I'll get a similar apology. In the mean time, no hard feelings.

Thanks for letting me know! I just responded (in something of a rant), that was crazy. Thanks for being so nice! {{User:Bencmcclain|Bencmcclain]] (

Bencmcclain, I apologize for dragging you into a sockpuppet investigation, but I was right about GraniteSand: he has at least two other accounts,
