Actually, I didn't call you ignorant, I just said that ignorance about astronomy bugs me- and in that specific area you were posting in an ignorant manner. Again, that is just how it is. I think you should calm down now, and we can all move on.

I will ounce you apoligize, the way it is written, it is written out as I am ignorant, I bet that is the way you mean't it. But I am not going into that.

I am much more calm, not mad at all anymore, BUT I still DESERVE an apologiy, and I will apologize on my side, as soon as you do. Just because you are a mod, doesn't mean you can go around insulting people without having any consiquences. (if you say you didn't insult me, sure fine why not?)
I am not going to apologise just because you are annoyed at being in error. Not will I ever be bullied or chivvied into it. So don't bother, and get this back to something vaguely worthwile.

Okay, you guys know I'm a scientist.
Anything you need to have cleared? I just saw something about the Moon not spinning... I must've been mistaken...

First off, "Bullied"? (no, just wondering, what the UK definition of bullying IS)
Todays error guy... CRASH!
(...)
Sorry, but this kind of ignorance bugs me... why the heck wouldn't the Moon spin?
THAT my friend, is the ONLY reason I want, no DESERVE and apology. AND THIS is what happens when 2 people did a mistake / "bad move" and both stand there ground.
Well, okay, just so no one is in doubt.
The Moon not only orbits the Earth, it also rotates around it’s axis. It just happens to do so in the same amount of time it takes to circle the Earth, giving rise to the common misconception of the Moon NOT spinning as “it always has the same side facing Earth.”
There.
Crash> Ush usually doesn’t bully anyone. He’s just sharp and sometimes sarcastic, which by some can be mistaken as hard.

I have seen "hard" in my life, trust me, I have. (apperntly Mrs. Small was Bitching at me, I thought she was just talking to me) BUT, that was plain insulting, (being called ignorant) And I am NOT making a mountain off a mole hill, but all I want, Is a simple apology for the fact that It was insulting, to me. THATS ALL a simple apology. after wich we can all happly forgive/ forget.
But Crash, seriously. If someone said the Earth was flat, wouldn't that be ignorant?
Same goes for the Moon not spinning. That you recant your statement doesn't mean it - the statement - wasn't ignorant.

The funny thing is, That is a miscumspetion that I was thought to when in Grade school.
===>"Why do we only see one side of the moon, Miss?"
==>"Because it doesn't spin"
BUT you can't call some one Ignorant based on ONE false statment. EXAMPLE, like you calling everyone on KMC who got the REVOLUTIONS story wrong ignorant because you went and saw it before everybody else.
