jk said [snippets here]:
take your wise words elsewhere.
courtesy is a top priority on this list.
this comment of gillian's is pure bigotry.
i think i have shown much tolerance on this list over the years. it has not
been run with an iron hand and people have always been given the benefit of
the doubt. and then more. my opinion is just that - my opinion. i don't try
and force my beliefs down people's throats.
however, i offer an apology to those i've offended. a week in bed with flu
has probably left me shorter tempered and somewhat more typo-prone than
usual.
still, i feel some comments have been a little insensitive. onward, as
they say...

Gillian comments:
Well, telling me to take my wise words elsewhere seems discourteous to me.
As does labelling me a bigot. And more than a little insensitive.
When the list manager tells me to go elsewhere it can sound like a warning -
toe the line or you're off the list!
It is my experience that you have not run the list with an iron hand in the
past. So, your short fuse on this occasion was surprising. I'm grateful for
the explanation of a week in bed with the flu.
And I thank you for your apology.
Continuing onward...
Gillian
