I don't think any of us would ever accuse the world of being entirely fair,
but there are some things we should all strive not to do, regardless of how
p*ssed off we might get. One of those things is to forward a private
message to the open list without the originator's consent. This is indeed
an obnoxious email!
I don't generally give a damn how obnoxious Ed is in public or in private,
but I defened his right to keep a private message private. I'm sure Ed did
what he thought he had to do to keep such commentary off the list, and it
ain't his fault that it showed up here. Everybody get my drift? For the
record, if I send someone a private message I would like it to stay that way.
