Without beating a dead horse, and posting with no expectation or want of a response, I would encourage everyone to respect their list mates when writing messages to the list.
By respecting your list mates I mean please be courteous when speaking, be respectful of them and their opinions, and please do not post anything (language, allusions, etc.) that may be construed as disrespectful or insulting. It will make the list far more pleasurable and useful to everyone. If you have a real problem with someone, rather than bashing it out on the list, please take it private. No one needs or wants to see/read that. I think this list is an invaluable resource to people, and we all know that folks enjoy jumping in on a flame fest and everyone has their $0.02, but please keep that kind of thing off list, and if it does appear, please do not contribute it or even acknowledge it with a response (unless it is off list). I've had requests to make the list a closed one where subscriptions are moderated and I highly disagree with that model, so looking for the best compromise, I think that conducting yourself in a polite manner is a far better solution. The motto: "treat others as you would have them treat you" (or something to that effect) should apply to all posts. Please don't reply to this, I don't think it needs to be discussed (in fact I think there is nothing to discuss). Just keep it in mind.
