1- Not to burden the point, but shouldn't this whole conversation be 
taking place on the 'talk' list? if we're airing peeves, that's one of 
mine.
2- Bill, dude, chill out, okay? you're the only one ranting and raving 
here- I appreciate that what you describe happens other places, but in 
all the time I've been on this list, I have *never* seen anyone be 
bullied, raved at or abused, certainly not on the point of netiquette. 
In this last case, Collins pointed out that most people *strongly* 
prefer context and inline posting. the most recent time before that I 
can recall it was Jed, who was straightforward and emphatic , but not 
abusive. And anyway , getting along is for *everyone* to work at
3- IIRC, a set of suggestions as you describe them was sent to me when I 
joined the list- if not, maybe someone should write one up and have it 
added to the 'welcome' email as well as having an official place to 
point newbies to. I'd be happy to work on that with you or whoever else 
is interested.

Peace, Love, and Joy
