You get one post and one rebuttal as follows:

1. You post on a new topic.
2. I respond.
3. You rebut.
4. I respond.

or

1. You respond to a post of mine or someone else's.
2. I respond.
3. You rebut.
4. I respond.

This provides a fair opportunity for you to make your case.

In light of what has gone on with this thread, I will add a new rule: You will respect my authority as moderator to declare a moratorium on a topic. I posted that there had been enough information and resource links on the issue of the MANA 2000 home birth neonatal mortality statistics for people to make their own evaluations. I could, of course, lock the thread so no one can post to it, but I'm not having a problem with anyone else, so rather than do that, I would rather handle the problem by dealing with you as an individual case. I am not singling you out. I would apply the same rules to anyone who behaves as you do, but so far, you are the only one.
