I was out of the country on business for several weeks with no time to
visit alt.coffee
Upon, return I was dismayed at how much lower the 'tone' of the group
had sunk in just six short weeks.
I propose, therefore, that we cease ALL personal attacks. If a
personal attack is made in a post, then ignore that thread.
It is abundantly apparent that the verbos- and/or pompos- ity of some
posters antagonizes some readers, so the guilty can do much to
improve the experience here.

amen. It is getting tiresome and the guilty are too clever by half.

I hereby disclaim any knowledge of user 'martyminor11 . . ' I am in no
way responsible for his recent postings, etc,., whatsoever.
but for 2 of the most august users of this group to goad / respond to
'marty' in this way? IMHO, may not be the best idea.
moving toward a more polite ac group.
