I for one did not notice any "if you don't playing our way go home" in his email. All he said is that if you prefer using a forum why are you subscribed to email when a forum is available on u2ug (at least that how I read his email)

the reason we need "so many stinking protocls" is that different people like different things and I for one do not consider 2 (email or forum) to be too many, now if we had

forums
emails
sms
IM
regular mail
etc,etc,etc

then I might say "whoa enough already" but having an email and forum option seem perfectly logical to me

maybe we should quit having "so many stinking pick version, so many computer models, so many stinking computer languages" and just standardize on just one?

To say, "if you don't do things my way I'm quitting the team"?  There are too 
many
postings that forswear any solution that doesn't result in a complicated mess of
things.

Is this a particular IT mentality?  Does this explain the many "standards" that
saturate the IT industry.  Do we really need numerous protocols to do the same
stinking things over and over and over!  Perhaps we in the IT industry ought to 
heed
this proclivity of ours and try to do something about it.  A good new years
resolution, eh?  :-)
