It bugs me, too. But I'm usually cautious as to what sort of criticism
I post; and the reaction when I asked if folks could not use the F-word
for a few days illustrates why I'm usually so cautious.
I don't have a problem with anyone calling anyone else on
listmember-bashing, personally, just so long as calling the individual
on it doesn't include name-calling.
