Title: Agreeing to disagree, WAS Free Book: Telecom & Networking Glossary

Ladies and Gentlemen, that was, without a doubt, one of the most genteel and mutually respectful exchanges, where there existed a disagreement, that I have witnessed on this list in the time I've been a member. Thanks to all of you (well, *most* of you...) for the reminder that we don't have to be @$$holes to each other just because we hold contrary opinions.

I'm glad to see that there are actual adults on this list. I was beginning to think I was surrounded by children... rude, opinionated, stupid children in need of a severe beating.

Jim,

On the contrary, I feel like I caused offense. I have very high respect for
Priscilla and had no intention of getting this barrage started.
