NHRTL Comments PolicyAs you know, the value of Life is the conversation of our day. Without a few basic rules, that conversation can turn into a contentious, shouting match that discourages others from entering in.

Below is our comments policy. By posting on this blog, you agree to the following:

  • You may comment without registering. You are free to log-in via Disqus, OpenID, Twitter, Facebook—or not at all. If you aren’t registered, you must use your name and email address.
  • You may post follow-up questions. If you have a question, chances are you are not the only one. Others may likely be thinking similarly. Therefore, We would rather receive your comments on the blog rather than via email. It is better conversation and better use of everyone’s time to address all at once rather than answer several similar emails.
  • You may disagree. We welcome debate. However, we ask that if you disagree with us, or anyone, please do so in a way that is respectful. In our opinion, there is way too much shouting in the public square to tolerate it here.
  • NHRTL reserves the right to delete your comments. This is our blog. We are not obligated to publish your comments. The First Amendment gives you the right to express your own opinions on your own blog not on ours. Specifically, We will delete your comments if you post something that is, in the opinion of NHTRL Trustees, (a) snarky; (b) off-topic; (c) libelous, defamatory, abusive, harassing, threatening, profane, pornographic, offensive, false, misleading, or which otherwise violates or encourages others to violate our sense of decorum and civility or any law, including intellectual property laws; or (d) “spam,” i.e., an attempt to advertise, solicit, or otherwise promote goods and services for profit. You may, however, post a link to your site or your most recent blog post.
  • You retain all ownership of your comments. NHRTL will not own them and we hereby, expressly disclaim any and all liability that may result from them. By commenting on this site, you agree that you retain all ownership rights in what you post here and that you will relieve NHRTL Members and Trustees from any and all liability that may result from those postings.
  • You grant NHRTL a license to post your comments. This license is worldwide, irrevocable, non-exclusive, and royalty-free. You grant NHRTL the right to store, use, transmit, display, publish, reproduce, and distribute your comments in any format, including but not limited to a blog, in a book, a video, or presentation.

In short, it is our goal to host the most important of conversations with caring, honest, and respectful people. We believe this simple comments policy will facilitate active thought in a favorable environment.
