Subject: Re: moderator of this list seeks consensus
As for me, I have days when frustrations, discouragemtne, and yes, anger,
has got the best of me on any given day of the week. And from time to
time, I have expressed that frustration. I hope I haven't here, on this
list; and if I have, I would hope that some one will admonish me
privately... All this to say, who am I to be harsh with someone who has
been helpful to me? Having said that, if Gabe wants my opinion on how he
has treated me in the near future, believe me, I will tell him. I have
been ridiculed, chastized, and often left to stand alone on issues that
matter to me, but the way I feel, I am a big kid; I should be able to
take, as well as give, constructive criticism. Yes, he has come across a
little abbrasive on lists on which he and I are both subscribed, but I
have done that, myself. So who am I to judge someone or criticize someone
about how to better communicate with people, when I am just as guilty as
any of the rest of us. In fact, I lambasted someone from another list on
another matter, and after the message came back, I was shocked at the
language I used. If Gabe does come back, I would suggest that, if he gets
a little out of line again, let us talk with him privately, rather than
air out dirty laundry in public. I'm not defending his actions; rather,
I'm only trying to give him a fair, benefit of a doubt. Richie
