Ok. But I wish you would have flagged the parent poster as well. He brought up the IMLS, which is a huge waste of money, and further called its planned budget cuts "devastating". Not sure how a loss of 600k in funding to libraries in Houston is devastating when we are the only city in the world that paid for TWO stadiums with convertible roofs.
Further, the IMLS that he referenced supports over 150,000 libraries and museums, averaging about $1,000 each. Not sure how that's "devastating".
So I get that you don't like my tone, and I'll pay more attention to that, but the parent's post was a huge exaggeration, which is why I took that tone. And yes, I should have written it better.
- dang 10y agoI always find it odd when people say 'tone' when it seems obvious that the problem is about content, but thank you kindly for the good will. Your point about library funding far exceeds my library funding expertise (a.k.a. zero), but you can always post another reply to the original comment, as long it's factual and civil.
