I'm a member of another list that was almost destroyed by comments
with an "edge".
I have detected what seems to me to be an unhealthy edge to some
people's comments. Please, can't we talk to each other as friends. And we
must be careful about impressing our beliefs on others around the world.
One of the great things about the Internet is the international
contributions. But when we do that we must realize that occasionally
comments from one culture can be magnified in another. Let's live with it
and when the need arises, explain with a desire to inform, not to correct
or chastise. Please. ---Chas---
