== Is Wikipedia salvageable...? == 

 Rangerdude, 

 Thank you for the back-up on the Lef-POV Admin attacks and subsequent content wars.  Frankly, today I'm feeling more than a little bit like throwing in the towel on Wikipedia.  The management is obviously part of the problem, which they blithely ignore.  And from my interactions today  alone  it looks like this is a fairly unretractable and truly systemic problem.  Which shouldn't surprise me given the pedigree of its founder.   

 You seem like a very level-headed and calm fellow.  So, please tell me: why do you put up with this nonsense..?  Wasting my time is not something that I can afford. 

 High Regards,
