Dear Bob Olsen: I'll say this and then no more about the subject... I've been reading the M list for several years. Up until now it has been the most mellow and friendly list I've ever joined. But now, you get the award for the most hostile and angry post yet...by a long shot. It seems you have no regard for civil order and don't follow rules that differ from your ideas. You were very disrespectful to all here and owe an apology. Nobody on the M list is trying to "muffle" your political views. Actually, few care about reading your political views HERE. However, there are political lists for people like you to have "free" speech on. The M list is for people who want to talk boats...and the majority of posts against political messages here clearly sends that message to you. It is proper etiquette to respect the majority and THAT IS the "American" way. Last but not least...Next time I see a post from you it will not be read and immediately deleted. However, IF you continued to spout the same angry jargon and I was the M listmaster, you would be banned. On the other hand, IF I was a political listmaster you would be most welcome...especially if it was a haters list. Respectfully, Bill Pritchett
Sorry, Bob, but I must finally speak out. It is neither proper etiquette nor the American way to respect only the majority, but to respect all -- minority and majority.

My apologies to Bob and all of you on the forum. I meant to address my remark to Bill, but I'm so upset by the mean-spirited exchanges that I made a mistake. I'll sign off and say no more.
