Hi, all,
 
I think we can sum alot of this up as most of these postings are, in fact, good hearted attempts to help or "correct" things in our kingdom. Sum of us have problems with being clear and some of us have problems with not reading emotion into content. All in all, i think we do pretty good with only occasional lapses. 
 
I know from other lists that if someone feels the flames are too hot, taking a break is not a bad idea. i've seen people who were apparently on the verge of emotional meltdown go away and come back later in a much improved condition. Great for them and great for us. I've also seen people just go away. Too bad, but you cannot make everybody happy. Really, you just can't.
 
So, next time you get really wound up with someone on this list, consider that you just might do best to step away.
 
Prosit to the barkeep,
And prosit to the house
Have a beer
And be of good cheer.
Try not to swollow a mouse.
 
Syr Richard
