OK, then, may I assume that you would like to have the PDML be as inclusive as possible (in the sense that as many people with serious interest in things Pentaxian would be welcome)? (This may not be a valid assumption.) If that assumption is correct, would you want the language "spoken" here to be as "friendly" as possible (in the sense that nobody would be offended by vulgar language), or do you feel that the right to "compose" speech full of vulgarity should override? Should the PDML be a list favoring civil discussion of things Pentaxian or a list favoring vulgar discussion of things Pentaxian? Fred
