No, teasing does not turn into harassing because someone becomes overly emotional. Sending emails to an email list in a teasing manner is not harassment. Pestering or badgering, maybe, but not harassment. It would have been harassment if I spammed a personal email account with a number of unwanted emails, or if I threatened someone repeatedly, or if I did something started doing things that could not be easily ignored, for instance, things that have clear, real-life consequences. None of those were the case. > Not where it comes to calling me names. And I wasn't referring to you. Calling names still does not equate with making threats. One can be easily ignored, the other cannot. -- "Erik Reuter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.erikreuter.net/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
