Thank you Randolph for your kind words for our management. Croggon left the
list insulting several members some time ago. If you wish you can dig into
the past messages. I also find the use of:
"You others get off your arses!"
quite insulting again.
We have been working for the list a ton and more, if you so would like to
know. And our interventions have been minimal not to invade with our
personal preferences.
I would like to remind again the despotic methods that previously reigned
under Croggon's rule, fired from the list:
David Bircumshaw
Rebecca Seiferle
Henry Gould
Gabriel Gudding
Kent Johnson
Marcus Bales
Erminia Passannanti
...
decisions always arbitrarily taken.
With Joseph we had something to say about the book, keep tuned,
and best wishes,
Anny Ballardini
