RE: [atlarge-discuss] Bruce' s list

["Jeff Holt" <jefftttt@txucom.net>]

Mr. Williams,

The use of all CAPITALS is considered shouting... 
And you claim Internet savvy?

The common courtesy given in normal conversation is the absolute minimum
that each of those in this list deserve, self-imposed hopefully.  Though
after spending some time in the Archives, I begin to wonder.

Another common courtesy is to delete the additional text appended at the
bottom of each "Reply" since, quite obviously, it is all saved in the
mailing list forum for reference.  Let's try and save some bandwidth,
eh?

Also, there is absolutely no need to address emails both to me
individually and to the discussion list, since that provides me with
just twice the drivel to wade though.

Regards T'all,

Jeff and all fellow members,

 First of all I was not shouting but exclaiming, hence my appropriate
use of the "!" in my comments/remarks below.

  Now to your more relevant question.

  My point was in acceptance and recognition of your previous
comments/remarks on this thread (See below my previous post),
and in particular the following comment/remark in your previous
post: "Also, I agree wholeheartedly with a previous Poster (Abel I
believe)
 about this forum NOT being a place where personal invective should be
 allowed or tolerated."  <--- This would therefore seem to be indirectly
suggesting that some arbitrary "Rule" for a public discuss or ML would
be a adequate method of eliminating " personal invective " based on
a value judgment of some sort.  That would be a ugly form of
Censorship as I was enumerating.

  Is that a little clearer for you Jeff H?  Please advise
