Well, I for one don't really believe the list will be the same.
I told you, Terry, when this first became a problem just to back-off
injecting yourself into Judy's posts and the problem would disolve. You
claimed that Judy was the bully--couldn't agree that the list was too
important for "you" not to be heard, regardless of the conflict....the
"modest request" that's been mentioned. I, like others, have had to
stay clear of your brow-beating to keep my composure...I don't do gum
luckily. Judy was clearly not able to accomodate your "style." Why oh
why is it so important to be heard and at what cost?
Now we have the consequences. I hope you're satisfied, I'm not. I'm
leaving.
The membership's bury-the-head-in-the-sand, ignoring the transgressions,
"please just give me the facts" attitude is a poor excuse for "debate"
or "discussion." To stay would be a reminder of the sad state of affairs
this list has fallen to, e.i. Terry King--saint and all-around-good-guy.
I know differently; I've been there too. Too bad you can't accept
criticism as well as you give it. Too bad for the list.
My last "arguement" will be formed simply by your own words:
> Judy often grossly overcomplicates things. Her comments about gum printing
> usually display a narrownwess of approach: Judy's approach. If she says
> something that years of experience have shown to be quite untrue, is one
> not to say so for fear of offending her or pricking her sensibilities.
Just change the name from Judy to Terry and the gender-specific
pronouns. The shoe fits equally well.
Good bye, list.
Peace.
