As a moderator of another LEM list, I find your attitude offensive and patronising.

*Good!* It was *meant* to be.
I did search the archive of the list before posting.
Not very hard you didn't.
Don't worry, I'm not hanging around.
Fine. Be like that. If you run away and hide at the first tiny tap of reproof, you're not going to learn very much, though.
But just think how many newbies your rude attitude will discourage.
/Au contraire./ I am attempting to encourage an attitude of self-
sufficiency and open-minded enquiry. My many freelance clients pay for my
assistance and they get a great deal more hand-holding and understanding,
but I still try to teach them to think for themselves as well.
If you're the list nanny then you're a disgrace to your job and your posting will be referred to Dan.
[Guffaw] I'm not and wouldn't be. (Aside: more comprehensive research there, heh?) But feel free.
If you're not the list nanny, then you're in breach of LEM list etiquette, and deserve banning immediately. I might even do it myself.
[Much mirth]
Good grief. Do you really behave in such a childish manner in the rest of
your life? You cannot be serious. What are you, twelve or something? Get
real. Get a grip. I answered your question, quickly, factually and
completely. I was helpful and informative of my own free will for no gain
on my part.
I just did it in a sarcastic manner. If you can't handle that, it's your
problem, not mine.
Oh sh*t... I think I just screwed something up. I was padiddling thru the lists and 'accidentally' banned at least one subscriber from posting on this list. Dang it!
If it was you, please let me know by writing to:

and let me know. I'm not sure how to reverse it, but we'll figure this thing out somehow........
