That is a view I wholly share. My impression of the list is based on a short timespan, mostly the "dispute" between Garth who appears to make many sweeping and incorrect remarks, and Wendy, who is affronted and strikes back sweepingly. Apologies if I have inferred incorrectly the flavor of the list! I am interested in this and other debates, and would like to see some reasoned arguments - even more I'd like to see some progress, vis evidence that people are listening to each other and not just responding to what they've read without engaging with the content. I am not, by the way, suggesting that all postings have seemed to be negative to my mind, and that includes postings by those I named above, so please don't shoot me yet guys!
