Hi Rob, List,
No need for any apology at all... You've said what's on your mind and
I've said what many wanted to say but were not willing to.
There's no need for a private beating, or lashing with wet noodles as I
didn't take offense to anything you said.
By the way, I agree with your statement about freedom of speech, but
rules must be adhered to.
Regards,
Eric

While I do not agree with any form of censorship in a public forum, with that
liberty comes responsibility. A community can only exist while people benefit
from it.
It is important that fraud is identified and information about discoveries, expeditions and so on are fabulous but when we descend into abuse we waste many combined hours of list members as they are forced to either read or delete it.
Diamonds are difficult to find because they are buried in so much crap. This list sometimes becomes analogous to that.
Yes it's ironic that I put this out as a general mail (this time... public
apologies to Eric, to whom I sent my first mail on this subject in error making
it seem like I was having a go at him)
However, I will happily take a PRIVATE beating for expressing my views. Bless
freedom of speech and expression
Rob
