Greetings list folk, Well, I made a mistake this afternoon and need to apologize.
I saw Jack responding to a message from Filip in which Filip was replying to some remarks Cliff Hume apparently made in an off-list communication. I failed to read all the way down in Filip's message to the quoted message that was clearly labelled as coming from Cliff, and mistakenly assumed that Filip's response was directed at Jack. Jack, I apologize. My mistake. You wrote: > Back off -- you are the guest here You did take it upon yourself to comment on Filip's behavior, which put you in harm's way when I screwed up. I'll remind you and everyone that List Cop is my job and to send such remarks to me, privately. Filip, you made the faux pas of posting a private communication publicly *and* further set me up for this demonstration of "dumb listowner tricks" by not clearly labelling the quoted text embedded in your reply as to who wrote it, as follows: CLIFF HUME wrote: > Collopidal Silver can be produced for pennies per ounce, what would > make the silver produced in that communist nation worth thirty-five > Euros, a funny money currency worth more than US Fiat currency? That is > something deserving of a little thought. If I did read the whole message I'd have caught it, so my fault, but the habit of so labelling quoted text will go a long way to prevent this kind of confusion on the part of your readers. I won't comment on Cliff's remarks other than to say that you can write anything you want to in private e-mail and it's none of my business -- unless or until the recipient complains to me. Offline behavior toward other list members does count in those circumstances, so Be Nice, as Jack would say. <SIGH> Another day, another episode of List Owner Follies. <grin> Be well, Mike Devour silver-list owner (and all that other jazz...)
