I only foe folks so I don't have to see their posts (reserved for troll and flame types).
I trim my foes list down every January, as part of my annual renewal of hope in the human animal. I remove anyone from my list anyone who hasn't posted in a few months, or those whose posts seem to be getting + rather than - mods lately.
It works to keep my foes list from spiraling out of control.

I've contributed time and money to microloans (set up small businesses), AIDS prevention and care, clean water initiatives (dig wells, set up distribution systems, monitor contaminant levels), Doctors Without Borders, malaria extermination, blindness prevention (there are some common ways to become blind in underdeveloped countries).
They need all of the above, and a way for the able to advance, just as a blind man needs to learn Braille...

My worst fears have come to pass.
Conflation has begun. Run for your lives!
What about all the modern infrastructure U.S. tax dollars paid for, which the telcos 'forgot' to install?
Kinda the same person, but slightly different.
I knew someone who was kinda pregnant once...
Is it assault if I emit beta radiation?
Obviously Base Security thought it was an ice cream truck.
