Obviously, there are some attitudes and comments that are being perceived as very offensive, particularly via e-mail. I am not a censor. I am not a moderator. BUT, I do, as list owner, ask that personal messages meant as personal messages go to the person they are intended for. Flames and responses to flames are best not sent at all, but if they are sent, then do it privately...on PRIVATE email. When feelings are running hot and high, please let us take a moment to realize and imagine our neighbor...we Lactnetters are 1000 + of us, from all over. ..people you may pass by on the street..let us treat each other gently and with the UTMOST respect please.
