I took no offense, I just found your remark humorous. I belong to several
moderated lists, but the GML is not. Generally there is no need to moderate
it. But this was definitely one of the few times when a moderator would
have prevented a flame. However, the list handled the situation pleasantly
and there was no resulting flame-war.
I applaud the GML for dealing with this unpleasantness quickly and
painlessly. No one likes flame wars that last days and weeks on end that
that over-tax the list server. I'm glad this one is over quickly and
amicably.
