How much more of the world's habitat and food supply for animals do we plan on destroying. How many more wetlands are we going to drain, fill, and build on? How many more sand dunes are we going to knock down in the interests of high-rise hotels or luxury homes?

If RHO passes: 4♠.
If RHO bids 4♥: Pass.
I think I recognize the problem. Partner stretched with 3♠ on a sub-minimum and Axxxx. Her problem. I will not play mixed again ... at least not until June 19 in Tenerife.

4S. If rho bid 4H then pass
Just because 2 bids did not work well when combined with each other does not mean that those bids were not both the percentage actions.

4♠ when he passes, Pass when he bids... This is just logic imo.

3S establishes a game force, whether he can stretch or not is irrelevant. If you are in a GF and they bid 4H it cannot go all pass

No you are not. Pass is not even remotely forcing. For once I strongly disagree with Justin.

Say you're playing 2/1 and the auction proceeds like this
1H P 2C (4S)
is pass now forcing? I would say yes, because you're in a game forcing situation and your side hasn't pre-empted or limited their hand.
why is this any different when the auction goes:
1C (3H) 3S (not playing NFBs, so GF, since 4 of a minor is forcing) (4H)
1H P 2C (4S)
