  Again I wasn't referring to your part in the incodent regarding Eric.
Please try not to read something into what I stated that is not there, ok?
I said from my comment above: "didn't we just > get done with a call
for a poor decision regarding Eric?"  Notice the "WE" in that statement?
That "WE" signifies the DNSO GA participants, not you in particular,
or andy ONE participant Patrick.

  That's right I am not subscribed to the GA-Abuse list.  It is a closed
list.  However I can get any of the posts to that list, any time I wish to
with the poor security that the DNSO GA server has installed.  So you have
no idea what I have read or what I have NOT read...  But again I responded
to your comment: "Just look at all the onlist abuse.", not the ga-abuse
list abuse...

  Define what an isult is in the context of a Mailing list?  Define what
is a personal attack in terms of a ML and someones comments to it?
Define what is "Abuse" (Boy that is a broad term! ) in terms of
this or any ML in terms that applies to responses or original threads?

  IMHO as well a it seems a number of others, the whole list of rules
for this list is rather vague...
