Ron,
Your "Rules" are somewhat loaded and your position is 'thinly veiled'.
Or to put it another way, I don't know if I have ever seen such a delicate
expression of fascist policy.
Your 'Rules' would allow 'brief' additions of items that many may not
feel are appropriate here, while completely stifling any attempt to stop
them. This is a thinly veiled attempt to gag the silent majority.
Under your rules this might well be my second to last post to this list.
I assure you it's not.
Your friendly whining, basher, busybody, do-gooder,
Stephen

It's probably not really practical to allow something like this, regardless
of how worthwhile it might be for those who are interested-- because
the
bashers and do-gooders will continue to pile-on anyone who attempted
it, no
matter how well researched the information or how honorable the intentions
of the tipster.
If such a practice were to be allowed, at least two rules would need
to be
in place and enforced--
1) Only one brief message with basic information would be permitted.
If
this rule were violated, the person would be warned once and any subsequent
violation would result in immediate removal from the List.
2) The bashers and busy-bodies would not be permitted to flood
the List with
their normal plethora of follow-up bashing and whining.
Anyone who violated
this rule would be warned once, then removed from the List immediately
upon
receipt of any additional message on the subject.
Unfortunately, this would be the only way to keep the List clean
and orderly.
