I've been off list for several weeks dealing with a full platter, and just
signed back on. Was unimpressed to find myself in the middle of yet another
bashing session like the series that took place before my hiatus. I had
welcomed the hiatus because I had grown frustrated with the high ratio of
pettiness to professionalism I kept finding on this list -- a list I
initially looked to as a professional resource.
While there is much to be learned from this group and some excellent
discussions, I can't afford to waste so much time wading through mud in
order to find a pearl. Please lighten up and tighten up, people. You're
chasing away too many partipants.
