THE CULTURE AROUND HERE
Jason Hare is absolutely correct. The level of one's
enjoyment of the Who can range from casual to fanatical, and
that's the whole purpose for this list--the wide range of
perspectives. But in none of these perspectives are
personal attacks to be tolerated! I've been involved in an
ongoing personal battle over the Beatles, and I am sorry for
whatever my role was in causing or escalating it, but it's
over.
I thought we had a moratorium on this sort of name-calling
and baiting. However, it has come to my attention that Dr.
Jimmy has a few personal concerns of his own that are
influencing his behavior on this list and it seems they have
reared their ugly heads again. We all need to keep this in
mind--we know how to hit delete keys, too. I think the wise
approach to take is to simply ignore petty postings. Don't
reply to 'em, don't forward 'em, just read and dispose, or
dispose without reading them at all.
Dr. Jimmy, straighten out your act. If you can't, you'll
find that you no longer have a voice on this list. Kick you
off? I don't have the authority for that, but we can
individually refuse to read your dreck. So, post away, and
if you continue your present course of pettiness, I think
it's fair to say we'll quit even bothering to open your
messages.
