I think the banning of Stroller for 3-days is absolutely absurd. Chrissy has not been involved with the AGW thread to date and should default this sort action to Henri or yourself. I can bet which side of the argument she falls on even without her uttering a single word.
BTW what has she contributed to this forum lately? Her posts are rubbish and totally meaningless.
