* I’ve alerted Dabomb87 ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ADabomb87&diff=277673189&oldid=277609343]) that you might be contacting him. <span style="white-space:nowrap;">'''[[User:Greg L|Greg L]]''' ([[User_talk:Greg_L|talk]])</span> 16:50, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
*I think he's not around much until 20 March. I completely agree with Sssoul, that it's rather insane to link "April Fools' Day" to "April 1" as a slavish matter of course; the ''option'' of doing so is just another compromise the community seems to be making. I suppose it's worthwhile to keep the peace. [[User:Tony1|<font color="darkgreen">'''Tony'''</font >]] [[User talk:Tony1|<font color="darkgreen">(talk)</font >]] 17:12, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
 
::thanks for responding - i'm not trying to argue anything or change Dabomb's analysis - i simply want to know what the perceived value is. i did ask on Dabomb's page a while back but no one clarified it. it seems like someone should be able to state what the rationale is.
