From : Debbie Neustadt, Des Moines, Iowa Iowa-Topic List owner Donna, We all can be very passionate about certain issues. I thank you for apologizing and also the restraint you show in dealing with differing opinions. To all of the members list, I am the one responsible for enforcing the rules regarding the use of and appropriate behavior on a list serve. Please communicate with me at <[log in to unmask]> if you have a problem with a posting. There are rules and standard ways of responding to a posting. Do not name call or use vulgar language. If you are responding to a posting you may want to just respond to the person that made the original posting. I don't want to get accused of violating anybodies right to speech. I just want to keep all of the members from seeing the exchange between only the two or three people that really care about something. I have not heard any compliants about the recent out bursts. Also, no one has signed off the list. Therefore, you guys must be more tolerant then me. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - To unsubscribe from the IOWA-TOPICS list, send any message to: [log in to unmask] Check out our Listserv Lists support site for more information: http://www.sierraclub.org/lists/faq.asp
