I am now in agreement with such a principle - for this list at least,
since altho' there were plenty of measured, intelligent dialogues as a
result of my original post, there has been an equal amount of hysteria
and vitriol from (exclusively) US registered domains: reactions to
exposed imperialist nerve-endings being touched, no-doubt...
I believe my original post was user-related and therefor on-topic.
I over-estimated this list's capacity for dialogue and contention and
will bear that in mind in future.
As I asked 3 times before this, can a moderator please move this thread
to Sounder or Community Chat?
