With the exception of drawing upon the wisdom of some of the cooler heads
around here, no, there is no reason. The BE folks have turned this list
into one stinking place. Nothing against their ideology or programs you
must understand....it's all about their consistently reactionary conduct. I'm
sick of it. I've put up with it for years with hardly a protest till now
other than to occasionally plead with Bill Ryan to behave. But Bill Ryan is not
the real problem. The BE folks are the problem.
And it is a big problem to me that so many folks, like David Ellerman do
not show up here anymore. We have the BE folks to thank for this. So I
apologise for adding my angry voice to the mix...but I think there are certain
people who need to hear my angry voice and there are certain people who need to
see the response of certain consistently rude people to my angry voice, a
voice I rarely raise at all. Folks need to pay attention to us little folk and
our demands for civility from the BE folk on this list.
