The H.D. discussion, in my opinion, HAS gone on too long and incessantly for
weeks, without moving forward. When new information or a new argument is
available, I'd be glad to hear it. But up to three posts by the same
individual every day on the same subject has become nauseating. In a town
meeting forum, people who hold the floor too long are snubbed or told to
give someone else a chance to speak. Here we have no control over that other
than the delete key, which apparently is difficult for certain users. So
please, Al, give it a rest for the sake of those who enjoy using the
listserve for purposes other than their own personal podium.

Brian

I rather enjoy the discussions, especially when they are contentious.  They
can, however, go on too long.  Methinks that there is really no remedy as
people in University City will say what they want to regardless of whether
there are rules or guidelines.  If we lose people, that is unfortunate but I
think it is better to allow more free flow of opinion.

C'mon Scott.  Lighten up!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I normally ignore people asking me to unsub or sub them, but I figured
I'd respond here because Scott is a friend of mine, and because I've
gotten a few such requests recently.


I'm curious what others think on this. Is the approach to the
h.d. debate (the most noise on the list of late) to ignore Al and let
things go silent? Is it worthwhile that there is this discussion?

The downside of such heated discussions is that the number of unsubs
goes up markedly.

(Remember, people on AOL and a few other really bad mail systems have
enough trouble deleting unwanted mail that these discussions can seem
onerous indeed.)
