Hi,

Can I just extend my support to Hans, I agree that it is not his decision alone to suspend or censor offensive emails.

For my part, RD just simply doesn't bother me, in fcat he is even boring, mainly because he is so predictable. I endorse Tobin's earlier reading of the situation. Also the one thing we mustn't do, is allow this kind of disruptive influence to impede the list, and we are in danger of letting this happen. I have more important things to do with my time than discuss RD. So we have some choices to make. I favour the warning line and if the said person still continues to post in an offensive manner, then there is only one person to blame. I also don't support the brilliant but flawed argument. I've seen planty of flaws in his posts and not even a glimmer of brilliance. But then again I'm an asinine.........

Let's get this list back to normal and leave RD alone to get his whatever somewhere else.
