First lets remember that CAVERS was put up more or less as a test to 
check "some stuff" out. It was interesting to see how the nature of the 
list changed in the last week or so.

One of the problems that I see is that people seem to be considerably 
less polite on the net than they would be in person. Additionally if I am 
going to flame someone I DON'T usually send it to a list server.
Since the net is basically leaderless people are free to be cretins 
should the mood strike them. As long as we as a GROUP continue to waste 
bandwidth we will see list moderators pulling the plug. Think about it, 
it's a free service. Act accordingly.

This message was NOT directed to anyone in particular.
If you want to flame me please don't waste the list members time by 
copying it to the list. Send it directly to ME!

Dive safely, live to be as old as me (pre-dirt).
