I am new to the list - and am an expat NYer living in moscow.
Is this list a community or is it a nasty fight club?
attacks like the ones i have been reading today are strictly forbidden on most
lists i read - -where is our moderator?
if you don;t have enough respect for each other to speak in some kind of civil
manner, why publicize your pissing match?
having a difference of opinion makes for fascinating discussion, but childish
personal attacks from your laptop are something entirely different.
i was a very serious student of structural linguistics, literary theory, etc -
and could offer all sorts of insights into why a person might want to learn a
certain flavor of english.
but i will not talk with immature expats who sling insults at each other.
it is not easy being an expat - and my experience has been a pretty lonely one.
how sad that i find out that there is a group of expats i could be meeting,
only to find out i have no respect for them!
sincerely,
Marco North_______________________________________________
