I don't notice rudeness so much, but content-free posts (and posters
who don't learn) are a problem on this list. Low signal-to-noise
ratio. I'd say you are too tolerant in avoiding moderation, but
moderation is needed for content, not just "politeness".
Normally I try to avoid "me too" posts -- but for those who felt my last
e-mail was too long, this is the essence of my argument (and very well
expressed).

Some of your emails have been pretty harsh in the past too.
I would be willing to enforce a stronger code of politeness on this list
if
that is what the membership wants. I have been told before, in other
contexts, that I tend to be overly tolerant of rude behavior.
Anyone else have an opinion on this?
