Camp Half-Blood or Camp Jupiter?

The Art and Aspirations of a Commenter
I believe in the power of a free exchange of ideas. I also recognize that words or access to
some information can be of harm to others, intentionally or unintentionally. As a
commenter, I therefore aspire to participate responsibly in the great online conversation
by:
* treating all bloggers with respect.
* seeking first to understand what is being said.
* celebrating another's accomplishments.
* using school appropriate language.
* rephrasing ideas in the blog that made me think, made me feel, or helped me learn
to let the blogger know his/her voice has been heard.
* commenting specifically and positively, without criticism. If I disagree, I will
comment appropriately, politely stating my perspective.
* being mindful always that I may be a role model to my audience, especially if they
are younger than I.
* making no reference to, link to, and/or giving access to any information that may
be inappropriate for a school setting.
* asking at least one question in my comment with the hopes of continuing a
conversation and deepening thinking.
* using a triple check before submitting any comment: Would I be happy to have my
mother read this comment? My grandmother? My favorite teacher?
Interesting. Shows the different points, good and bad, of Camp Jupiter and Camp Half-Blood. For me, I believe that Camp Half-Blood is more of my type, too. Some of the points are repeating itself, though. Would you try elaborating more on the reasons and back it up more? Each is very vague. Romans=POWERFUL. Greeks= STRONG. Just some points.

Well, what I tried to do, was just make people know that this was this and that was that. (This being Romans and that being Greeks.) Uh, oh, and Powerful and Strong or sort of the same thing. I'm quite sure I didn't repeat anything...

I've actually went around my school asking my friends: Am I Athena or Artemis? Most answered 'Athena' so... I guess i'm Athena's child. Huh, posts proven wrong by society. Boo society.
