If my name is on a post then I know I am accountable when I write! I
might not be so diplomatic if I am anonymous. Yes, we have had very
caustic posts in the past but because we could send messages off line
to the person and explain in a diplomatic way something we wouldn't
want to go on a post to the group we have been able to contain the
hostility.
I can't deal with this. It requires too much work opening so may posts
to find the one you want. I will probably go to the alternative lists.
