Re: [ga] Austerity measures AND ga-full
So clue in a clueless newbie, here, huh? I'd not looked into the ga-full list,
so when I
saw this I assumed (not too unreasonably, I hope) that it was a means by which
one
could in one fell swoop subscribe to all of the ga lists. So I figured what's
the big deal?
-- one subscribes one at a time. But then I looked and find the ga-full list
characterized
as follows:
"Those who do not accept the General Assembly list rules may subscribe to
ga-full list"
That is, those do not want to observe a minimum level of decorum, and so on. So
now
I must say even louder, "what's the big deal?" Toning down the rhetorical slash
and burn
is tough enough in a list that seeks to follow the rules; why should there be a
(no doubt
largely duplicative) list in which it's no holds barred? Clue me in, huh?
Curmudgeon I may be, but in these lists I would propose another yardstick:
"Would you say it out loud in church? Would you say it in court? Would you
say it in front of your mother or your eight-year old child?"
(Now that elections bit I see here in another email is quite another kettle of
fish; that
needs looked into.)
