Paola, (01)
Peter did not pick on you. He posted some ananymous examples of things
we should all avoid, and that should have been the end of it. (02)
You then stepped up and said you were the author of all of those
examples. You may think that everyone remembers everything you have
written, and who it was that wrote each thing. I'm sorry to disillusion
you. (03)
We all came here because we like the policy as it stands. Democracy is
electing to come here, not trying to change it. There is no place for
emails about the agenda of this group, you either find it appropriate to
your work or you don't. I would welcome an alternative forum for the
issues you like to discuss, and for posts about things you have not had
time to think about. Let me know where I can find it and I will see you
there, outside of working hours. (04)
