Ain't it the truth. I was afraid when he promised to leave the list a few months ago, he wouldn't keep his word. I know he has an a**hole, but it doesn't necessarily follow that I want to see it in his posts. I find it refreshing how incredibly tolerant of EMC and his ilk the listees are, not to mention the administrators, whose opinions in these matters I greatly respect. Lists with a sleightly higher standard would have banned him for HIS intolerance. If we are going to suggest a Zero Tolerance for anything, it should be reserved for the intolerant among us. With sufficient tolerance of all, and understanding aforethought to our words and actions and the affect of them on others, harmony can ensue, with or without Eric's opinions on the rules and whether or not he wishes to revisit the concept of self dicipline, and leave rule enforcement to the good minds responsable therefore.
