RARA-AVIS: Dante's List

TERRILL LANKFORD (TOLANKFORD@webtv.net)
Mon, 10 Aug 1998 12:38:38 -0700 (PDT) There's been a whole lot of "The pot calling the kettle black" on this
list over the last few days. I don't want to get specific, but if a few
of the more "Fiery" posters could take a look at their own notes and
realize that they are perpetrating some of the same behavior that they
are flaming about, perhaps we could return to a more civilized
discussion.

I've been a fan of this list for almost a year now. I have bragged to
others (including some major crime writers) about how this list was
peopled by intelligent, level headed folks and that it was virtually
flame free (unlike most lists I have sampled). Some of them have signed
on for a look. Frankly, I am now eating crow.

Don't get me wrong. I'm all for spirited discussion (and I've laughed
hard at some of the nonsense). But I think what we have here is
developing more along the lines of a 5th grade pissing match. It's
embarrassing.

volente CURTESY,

TL
