Excellent point Bob,

if I may make an observation, I'm sure this is very well thought of: "Thou shalt edit thine own e-mails" but for us foreigners and foreigner to the language of Shakespeare, many of us, I'm sure can't begin to understand the subtelities of all this and some may feel left out. I'm not asking anyone who is a master of this beautiful language to lower his level of mastery but it would be nice if all of the members could participate, appreciate and especially understand those well thought of expressions some of you use.

I don't want to speak negatively of anyone but I'll make another observation this time about Judy, to me it seems like she makes it a sport to write at a level that only a few can understand even amoung those born with an english dictionary in there hands. I know the feeling, the other day I was listening to a bunch of french intellectuals and I assure you, only a few french speaking people in the world could understand what all this talk was about.

Regards
Yves

DEAR TERRY,

You have undoubtedly heard that "one man's meat is another's poison". I am sorry that details drive away some who have unsubscribed but, as mentioned in my earlier e-mail, I think we all know how to use a delete button. When I see a topic in which I am not interested, I use it.

********Much more importantly, I have been humbled by the realization that some details which don't interest me today will suddenly become extremely important tomorrow when I will be working in a new process. I have thanked the list, Gord, and God many times that ALL of the discussions AND DETAILS are in the archives! If they go off list then they are lost to us.

I believe the 11th commandment should be "Thou shalt edit thine own e-mails" rather than discouraging ANY contributions to this list, how ever minute they seem to us personally.

CHEERS!

BOB

happy ? (anon)
