Ok -
Here's my $0.42:
If you are going to quote someone, keep it clear and simple. Don't leave room for mis-interpretation, and don't quote people falsely.
HOWEVER, If someone quotes you out of context, don't have a cow - you can respond to their post by posting what you truly meant in your statement that was quoted. But don't let it turn into a pissing match.
We are adults here - let's act like it!
Now can we just move along and continue with the never-ending political mud-slinging? That's almost more enjoyable than bickering over who quoted what and how...
