Hi All,
Firstly, happy holidays to those who celebrate various end-of-year
holidays and joy also to those who do not. You all rock! :)
Now, you all sure love drama here! :) -And, for the record, I am
posting on this now as there is a bit of an outcry from several here
for moderation. I've been away from the list today so have not seen
all this until now. I will write a more appropriate and more complete
and descriptive note quite honestly, when I am actually awake. :)
I find it interesting that pretty much everyone knows this thread
should end but in fact, no one is simply not posting to it anymore.
You all have the power to end this topic yourselves. -Yes? I get it.
You want to chime in about something that is important to you. We all
do from time to time. :)
However, if you desire silence, then be silent. If you desire respect,
be respectful.
If you need an official directive, then please all, close this topic
immediately.
Raul and I will deal with whatever aspects of this whole matter there
are, which need to be dealt with.
Please just bear with us a bit and be kind / respectful to each other
*big smile*
Talk with you soon and apologies for the list clutter.
Cheers!
Cara

I think the mods should really take some action against such
behaviour. It is a spam for the list. Joke from a friend of a member,
who manage to log in as the member, and manage to post such thing to
an email list is rather, unacceptable.
Is like, i took my mum's credit card, and wne to get myself a new
iphone, then, i try to explain to the bank that, "oops, sorry, it is
just meant to be a joke for my mum"...
I think, such behaviour should be condam by the moderators, either
looking at, temporary ban or even permernant ban.
If, no action taken for such individual, how can we make sure than,
members on this list will treat each other with respect?
We are not talking about $0.99C worth of gift, we are talking about
potentially $99.95 worth of gift that, what, coming out as a "oops,
sorry, just a joke, for the spirit of the season, forgive me"?
It is not a matter of either other people see the need of such
individual, and willing to give it or not, it is the matter of, this
particular individual is fooling us around, and being somewhat
disrespectful to the guidelines, objectives, and to other members that
is on the list, not to say it is somewhat disrespectful to the list
owners and moderators.
i think, in some sense, it might even consider as a criminal act.

enough is enough with this. If the monitors want to place me on
monitor status for voicing my opinion, then go right ahead. The

I think that this matter would be best dealt with by a moderator.
So far I've seen nothing but bashers and flamers flaming this
person, and while whether his request was appropriate on this list
or not, I am sad to say that the bashers and flamers will not be
dealt with at all, and that is very sad indeed.
This is Christmas, for those who celebrate it, yet people are
giving this person all kinds of grief for posting something that
may or may not have been appropriate. None of us lowly list
members have the power to say, unequivocally whether this person's
post was appropriate or not, so I think this thread should end
until the moderators get back and handle it.
Either way, I believe it's a shame to have to come to my e-mail,
and see nothing but hatred being spewed on a list that is there for
the sole purpose of helping others out.
Merry Christmas, or what ever other holiday you happen to celebrate
at this time of year, I'm sure you're making your religion very
proud.

Hello everyone,
I am not a moderator and I apologize if I am stepping over a line,
but I don't think I am, and I need to share this. We have had some
fairly harsh things to say about ram's request. I totally agree
that it is not OK to ask for a gift like the KNFB Reader from this
list. However, let's step outside of our own United States shoes
and into someone else's for a moment. From the name and the English
usage, I am guessing that Ram may not be a native English speaker
and may be from another country and another culture where asking
for gifts from strangers may not have the bad connotations that it
does in the States. Also, in the States, we have a 60-75%
unemployment rate among blind people, depending on how you figure
the stats. We know that we have many blind people who have not had
the opportunities to learn independence, self-sufficiency, and the
skill set that makes them empowered in this world. Given all that,
I would like to explain to Ram that I understand his/her need for
the KNFB Reader, but that we can't give it to him/her and that
it is not a good idea to ask.
I
would also like to explain that I feel very sad that Ram and many
of us, blind and sighted, don't have what we need in this world. I
send compassion and hope that Ram can find resources to get what is
needed. I also hope that we as a list change our tone of responses.
I hope the above is not out of line. I deeply appreciate this list
and the info and help that you share. I have learned so much and
have felt such a part of a supportive community. Please let's think
about saying no in a more compassionate way.
Many blessings to members of all religions and to persons with
varying perspectives, Terrie Terlau
