The Flame Wars - *NO LZ CONTENT*

[Jeanean Erickson <jeaneane@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello, Y'all Badgeholders!

I had to step out of lurkdom to staunchly defend *everyone's* right to post
to this list.  Hopefully (there's always hope!), on a good day, most of the
posts abide by 
good netiquette and any published guidelines.  

There are other lists that I am on where there is *much* more off-topic posting,
which drives me *crazy* (regular Steve Earle discussion on the Townes Van
Zandt list...c'mon!!) but I don't find it necessary to flame the posters
publicly,
even privately.  Public flamers, IMHO, have maybe too much free time on their
hands...get a life!  Or send me your extra free time, I need it!  :)

I personally find public flames to be rather distasteful and unfair.  We
shouldn't expect to agree with every post or member on the list, so as has
already been
said by many, just delete or ignore what you don't like and "move on"!  Or have
a private bitch session with someone who agrees with you.

Hey, I haven't read Inferno (altho I'd like to) so I don't know the context
of this quote, but I do have a fairly good dictionary, so with apologies 
in advance, here is my attempt at a translation:

     "Don't you run from them, but look and pass by"
  or "Don't you try to cure them, but look and pass by"

Seems to be appropriate, thanx, Bruno!
