REMEMBER WHAT YOU'RE DOING

Listowner:  You know, I wasn't going to say anything to you...benifit of
the doubt and all that; but this post, combined with an earlier one you
sent, has just pushed me too far.  To wit:

A perfectly reasonable request for assistance from like-minded people
who are here to share information and offer help! 
Now you, Listowner, come back with this very nasty diatribe:

Jeezuz..who do you think you are, the Seed Drill Sargeant? 

Look at you, strutting around decreeing who will send what and what you
will and will not allow...insulting us with comments like "I'll only say
this once."   

Don't look now, but the people YOU are SERVING don't lie awake at night
worrying about you and your little enterprise. Hard as it might be for
you to bear, we have no agenda to remember anything about the operations
or personal importance of your little "service".

Also, regarding another "nastygram" you posted to us earlier this week,
you're completely out of line attempting to lay down parameters for
communication.  Perhaps they seem foolish to you, but the questions and
comments we have between one another matter to us or we wouldn't
exchange them. 

This isn't some sort of test.  The reason this or any list exists is to
unite people of like-interests for mutual benifit.  If it's too much
trouble for you to share your majestic and benificent wisdom with us
propagation peons, forgive the hell out of us!  You may "own" the list
and may be responsible for it's functioning, but don't step over the
line.  

What you're offering is useful, but the tone you take is unacceptable.
You are here for us, not the reverse.
