THe problem stems from the way the list serv is constructed.
IF it were constructed sot that a reply went to the sender
and NOT the listserv, then these personal epithets
would not be sent to unwanted readers.
Sobstantive rhetoric I/we welcome, sensless interpersonal
banter, usless, and a waste of computing resources.
