Harry,
I hate to disagree with you on this one, but JohnH does not encourage or
discourage any of my posts. I am able to make up my own mind as to what I
post.

1. What, to your way of thinking, does 'facilitate' mean?


1. a. trans. To render easier the performance of (an action), the
attainment of (a result); to afford facilities for, promote, help forward
(an action or process).



¶2. To lessen the labour of, assist (a person).


3. Physiol. To increase the likelihood of, strengthen (a response); to
bring about the transmission of (an impulse). (Cf. facilitation 3.)


In sum, you facilitate by encouraging the perpetrators of the behavior
under discussion.
