    Petition to AOS Leadership on the Recent Decision to Change all Eponymous Bird Names

    Petition to AOS Leadership on the Recent Decision to Change all Eponymous Bird Names

    I really don't care about your physical actions or emotional state while writing. Writing still has a tone, and communicating with generalizations, insults, and hyperbole does carry the same tone as a rant. You by all means have the right to communicate however you please, but don't expect...
