Lela Buis discussing Odds and Sods on IGTC:
"It's about who's going to be in control of the list. That bunch tries to
run off anybody whose ideas they don't like, or anybody who threatens their
champion, Fang. I took offense to the first couple of abusive remarks, and
now I stay on the list just to harass them."

"bullying behavior that discourages free posting, or which ridicules or
harasses posters in an attempt to drive them away" above....
