[Humor]Grandmotherly Guardians of EN Board Goodness

[William Ronald]

When a poster veers dangerously towards a line that the moderators do not wish him to cross, Eric Noah's Grandmother as well as Morrus' Grandmothers often have been invoked to help keep these boards a friendly place.

A few questions:

1)Do these esteemed women know that they are the guardians of EN Board Goodness?

2)Are there any pictures of these wonderful women with their offspring or other notable people?

3)Does anyone know how many times "the Grandmother Clause" has been evoked to keep things under control?

Inquisiting minds need to know!

Hee hee hee

It would be sweet to see pictures of these wonderful people but I'd hate to see some of the photoshopping that might be done!

That.. sniff.. That was beautiful.

My grandmother was actually really cool. She survived the Nazi invasion of Poland, and came to the US after helping smuggle a number of friends and associates out of Poland to Canada and the US. She had been educated in the old European tradition of private schools across the continent; as an adult she spoke something like 12 languages fluently and could translate another nine or ten, and ended up working at the Library of Congress as a translator during the 1950s and '60s. I think I gained a lot of my morals and ethics from her.

Heh - not that anyone asked.
