"A leader gone bad makes fools of us all"
Dan,
Say it ain't so. At least the Gloat Fest thread, which took off
like wildfire and for which I was very
acrimoniously warned about , was PCI Mac related. Then when I speak up
for the "party line" I and every other lister who values the purpose of
the list and sweats to follow your standards are betrayed by this breach
of those very same standards.
Enlightening and harmless or not these threads have not been in
keeping with the list's purpose and have
taken our time and attention.
A violation of trust like this insults the community of PCI Mac
listers.
A cruel joke or simply a human slip up? It is easier for me to forgive
those who started the threads as I did last spring
than one who would give the example of "Do as I say , not as I do ! "
This is a sad day for the list.
