OK - look - this is now officially 'fucking ridiculous'.

I've been quiet recently on the lists in the hope this would all sort itself
out, but it hasn't.

What has happened? People are becoming more and more entrenched in their
positions, not thinking, being sarcastic (which does NOT help at all) and
just generally getting angry.

And I mean people on both sides - if I was pointing fingers, it would be
quicker to point fingers at people who had been 'nice'.

Mike's new rules:
1. it is just as easy to write an email and hit delete, not send
2. if you only have sarcastic comments, see 1.
3. if you only have caustic jabs at other people, see 1.
4. if you refuse to listen to other's arguments and engage in useful
discussion about them, please see 1.

Again - these are aimed at everyone. This is not constructive. Please check
your biases, anger and sarcasm at the door and leave them off the list.

I don't care if you wrote every line of code in webwork, or you can't even
understand Java - being nice and constructive are not hard.

If anyone disagrees, please speak up.
