Undustrial >> It is a forum for a very specific type of discussion about a very specific type of issues.
This is from the about (RTH) page...

Could you tell me where it says that RTH is about very specific issues and very specific types of discussions? As far as I can tell, RTH is first and foremost about "making Hamilton a great city". How is that possible since RTH has moved to allow the majority to fade minority comments from view?
I would appreciate your thoughts on this.
