U might be mistaken here, Tim.  As I had pointed out in my earlier post,
I did not mean Bob and Aaron - I meant some other people who have
participated in this thread before, and who have written to me in
private to express their irritation that's caused solely by their very
own private dislikes.  So, if I had been rude at all, that "rudeness"
certainly wasn't directed at Bob and Aaron.  Apologies to U two, if I
have caused any  alarm or displeasure.

I'm not against the idea of rules but it would be good if U could be
more specific as to what the rules are.  This would give us all a better
picture of the dos and don't's.  I might suggest that a list of the
rules be sent monthly to this list, to remind all users to abide by them.

I honestly believe that U ought to decide what the rules are, rather
than let individuals who have contradicting viewpoints make the decision
for us.  

"The falcon cannot hear the falconer...Mere anarchy is loosed upon the
world...."  <----- How very true....
