This morning I posted a personally abusive email, and I apologize to the
group for that.
As one of the recipients of said email, I understood that you were upset
and left it at that.
Since I have never done this before, and I feel it quite unnecessary, I feel
that I should unsubscribe myself from the group.
I'm not sure that the crime fits the punishment. I for one would not like
to see you unsubscribe, even if you wrote a message that you consider to be
personally abusive. If you were known for this behaviour then that would be
different - you're not.
As I said before, "Creating an electronic community is just as much hard
work as creating a friendship. You have to work at it all the time."
If among friends you are not able to convey your displeasure, then what is
the point of creating relationships.
If along the way strong words pop-out, then hey, it can only serve as a
reminder that at the end of each of these messages sits a live human being
- although I'm not sure about messages about better credit and viagra - but
that's just me.
So, if you feel inclined, please accept this invitation to subscribe to the
