I already responded to Satya privately before seeing that it was posted publicly as well. Let me highlight the major points I made:
> To Mike Devour: I am afraid you are mistaken, I have > not "assaulted" anyone by email, I have replied to an > unsolicited private email in an appropriate defensive > way... Civil behavior is more effective than rudeness. Profanity does not generally rise to the level of "appropriate." I take off-list behavior into account in my moderation of the group. > to make the clear statement 'stay away for good', > this to a person who is suddenly emailing me off list > and attacking me for raising the red flag against > her/him for breaking the off topic posting rules and > setting the record straight against glorifying a > socalled spiritual leader who has SEXUALLY MOLESTED > several of my friends! This list is no more a forum for attacking this person than it is for promoting them. I will tolerate neither. If something offends any of you, I expect to hear from you first via private e-mail, so I can take steps to correct the problem. > I have no problem playing bad cop here to make the > point that many are sick and tired of receiving such > off-topic postings. List-cop is *my* job. I expect everyone's cooperation in policing their *own* behavior, and using me as the first and primary means of influencing other members' actions. This is not negotiable. > Peace, Indeed. Mike Devour silver-list owner > Satya Dharma > > --- "M. G.
