Cateacher, Sir, I'm almost a little embarrassed with my earlier posts. I didn't realize you were in your 80's. I was raised to respect my elders. My teenage years were in the 1970's. I imagine most people on this forum had their teenage years (growing up) in the late 1950's, 1960's and 1970's. You are almost in the generation of my parents. The attitude and thinking of people in different generations are much different. If my parents were still living I don't think they would make a proper moderator to this forum. Most of the people moving to the foreigners moving to the Philippines are not conservative. They are outgoing, adventurous people willing to take a risk. They are usually outspoken also. They can give it and they can take. If they can't they shouldn't be moving to the Philippines. It's a great place but it's not for the quiet or conservative. You'll either grow up fast or lose you pants even faster. I don't think we need a moderator, nor do I want one. If we had a moderator, I think he should be more open minded and age appropriate. Cateacher, I admire you an I hope if I reach your age I'm as sharp as you are but I don't believe this is the right position for you. I'm sorry for being blunt.
