The Bangor Daily News encourages comments about stories, but you must follow our terms of service .
In brief: Keep it civil and stay on topic No vulgarity, racial slurs, name-calling or personal attacks. People who harass others or joke about tragedies will be blocked.
The primary rule here is pretty simple: Treat others with the same respect you'd want for yourself. Here are some guidelines ( see more ):
Don't insult one another or the subjects of BDN stories. You may be ticked off at what someone did or said, but you can explain that without resorting to name-calling or obscenity. Remember that young people are on this site too. That nasty line that makes your buddies go "haw, haw"? You're better than that. Comments should be your own work, not copied and pasted from elsewhere, though brief quoted passages to make your point are fine. And please don't use all capital letters. There's no need to shout. Stay focused on the issue in the article, not the individuals and their various failings. This isn't a forum to chat about your personal life. However, if you'd like to start a blog about your Maine neighborhood, please stop by Maineville.com and get started. Some ideas - the fate of the earth, abortion, gun control, the nature of God - aren't going to be resolved in a reader forum, so no need to get frustrated if others don't see your point of view. State your position once and leave it at that. Next to each comment is a link marked "Report abuse." Please use it if you feel comments on the site are out of line. Quite often, we won't see a comment until it's reported. Questions about why a comment was - or wasn't - deleted? E-mail us at web@bangordailynews.com and let us know your username and where you posted or saw the comment. That's about it: Stick to writing about the stories; be civil; be kind; enlighten your neighbors. And we'll keep moderating posts to try to ensure everyone meets those standards.Woodworking Tools Canada - News

Ridgid Tools Missing In CANADA
I love Ridgid tools,I'm so pissed off wiht all the Ridgid Tools not available in Canada and not available either for custom orderFor exampleRidgid 6 1/8 jointer JP0610Ridgid Fuego 6.5 circular sawRidgid Dual Base RouterRidgid 15 gauge angle finish nailerRidgid Collated ScrewdriversI can go on. Some of these tools used to be for sale in Canada and have now been abandoned and not even an option to custom order.I think this is awful.I used to work for Home Depot and the selection of Ridgid products was better back then we used to get all the new ridgid tools granted usually 6 months later but they did get here. I was told once by a Home Depot rep. that they could order me any tool I wanted. Your email kinda encouraged me to take them up on it today to see if they do . Well....they don't. I no like. It's fine if you don't want to stock because of expected low sales but at least have US Home Depot be allowed to sell it to you or have someone else be able to sell it here. Three products I am interested in are SeeSnake Micro and 12V Right Angle Impact Driver and... cordless nailer when it comes out.
