Quarrrrrrrrrrrrrrelling

[Cl.Mennel]

Hi folks,

this quarrelling is really getting on my nerves.
I've been a member of minutus mailing list since the early days in 2000,
and I've seen many quarrels on the list, most of the people involved
stopped sending and reading, and the one or other contributor fell
silent. Gained by those fights was nothing.

Now, all of you, do you really think sentences like the following are
helpful?
Is this the attitude of an "unprejudiced observer"?
Aren't these sentences nothing but the last resort of a hurt ego, the
expresion of one's own idiosyncrasies, are they?

Well, I just hope the selection of examples is well-balanced.
So there is one simple solution to the problem, take a deep breath,
exhale, and stop this nonsense.
Let's get back to the real issues.

Good luck! I'll cross my fingers.

Oh dear, I'm so sorry to see my "joke" included as part of the "quarrel"...
I know that Julian (to whom it was directed) knew that it was only an
attempt at "editorial humor".

However, I agree that quarreling is a bore, and good manners have a better
effect on list dynamics.
