I actually agree with Liz, and with Karen as well. I do not like printed
vulgarity and I try to avoid it myself. It was late at night and I must
have been influenced by Frank who, a few hours earlier, had let fly
exactly the same epithet at me, I notice. But it is my fault that I
allowed myself to be influenced, not Frank's that he influenced me.
I do apologize to you, Karen for such pointless language. You did indeed
write insulting nonsense, which did deserve to be pointed out. You don't
usually, and I bet I won't often see you do so again. It's out of
character for you
Furthermore, I never "left the list". Where did you get that idea? The
list stopped accepting my posts, as it did those of several other
people. Now it seems to be working again. Thank you, whoever helped fix it!

Why the stretch?
Karen was speaking for herself.
I find it refreshing that she did not pretend to speak for others who may
(or not) be offended by bad language.
She did not drag other 'guilty' parties in.
She did not adopt the mantle of List Police.
I find Karen's posts to be specific and informative.
Best!
Liz

Tony,
DO NOT CURSE AT ME!!!!
I did not curse at you, and I will not tolerate you cursing at me.
In other circumstances, I'd be sympathetic to your complaint.
But remember, this is a list where cursing has happened in the past,
where people other than Tony regularly insult others (a recent
"assholes"' shot seems to have escaped your notice). And please
recall
that several people here-- need I name names?-- regularly insult the
UC
Neighbors list because it was set up to be a more civil, friendlier
place.
In other words, you're demanding Tony follow a kind of civility that
you
don't demand from others, and on a mailing list where people seem to
pride themselves on not being "censored." You haven't minded it when
other people (including Tony) are cursed at. And you're on a list
where
asking for Special Treatment is _clearly_ not respected.
So I'm not impressed by this.
