Matthew,
you made a very good point here, thank you !

I think it is important to argue at the very base of the electronic
community issues that will affect the future evolution of the medium and
lists like this; On the other hand, I am again surprised (and there were
similar threads before) if not to say shocked by a certain ignorance and a
distorted view and opinion of a many other grown-ups.
