I read the thread from the beginning. Ed's reaction was the same as my own. I simply did not get involved until I saw the rather pretentious post about cutting people "extra slack." It's a friggin mailing list, not a run at the pulitzer prize for literature. You might consider "proofreading" your "brainfarts" before typing them out and hitting send. You might also invoke a little role-taking. Say to yourself, "will this line of thought incur the wrath of the lesser troglodytes" before you type it out and hit send. That way the rest of use will not rise upright off our knuckles and start beating our chests in a display of anger. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
