Re: Calderon's Cabinet

I grant you that we cannot foreknow the future, but that doesn't mean Gil Diaz is not Secretary of Finance or that he was not preceded by Jose Angel Gurria. Please leave that information in the infobox, and the Carstens part we can edit later. Hari Seldon 19:27, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Mexican Presidents

I've recently come into agreement with you. There's no undisputable way to number the Mexican Presidents, therefore I will no longer do so. Hmm, now if only the Obrador supporters would come to accept Calderon as their President (no matter what numbering he actually is). GoodDay 00:58, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Oops, sorry All-Bran. I should have posted this on your 'talk page'. GoodDay 17:05, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Apology

I apologize if you felt attacked by my comments. On the one hand, I think that you and I as everyone use sentences that could be considered attacks. The comment to your personal page was a joke, and I regret that you felt offended by it. Please accept my sincere apologies. On the other hand, I will ask you to be open about the contributions that others make, I love this encyclopedia because it gives us the unique and wonderful opportunity to make it a melting pot where everyone can give an opinion and every voice and point of view has a space. Regretfully, however, sometimes there are chauvinists that are unwilling and are unable to accept criticism or the points of view that others have, and do not even consider the other's ideas; the aftermath of that is a loss for everyone. I feel sad that some of the points that I wanted to expose with my contribution, were disregarded for purely personal reasons, without much consideration. For example; Hari is really a good sport, and very well intentioned, but many times he gives opinions that he considers to be facts and that is just not appropriate. (Believe it or not, I like him very much, and I admire that even after a heated argument he is willing to consider my opinion, and sometimes even embrace it). I try to participate as much as I can, but I can assure you that I never jump to talk or article to write about something I do not know (or that I have not researched). Noam Chomsky said, "freedom of speech is not about defending your points of view, but those of the ones that disagree with you".
