  Dear List,=20

  After replying a couple of days ago to a posting by Roger Jolly that I =

  thought was particularly praise-worthy, I received this response.  =

  What I find particularly disturbing about this response is not =
necessarily=20
  the idea that someone doesn't agree with Roger on what HE says that HE =
does=20
  in his own store, but that the person who wrote the above message did =
so=20
  anonymously, using a web address that guarantees anonymity, and is =
therefore=20
  able to spread whatever brand of poison he/she wants to spread without =
being=20
  accountable for it.  This is unacceptable and cowardly.  There have =
been many=20
  disagreements on this List, heaven knows, but the participants were =
all=20
  willing to identify themselves and put their opinions on the line.  On =
an=20
  open list such as this, that is not only expected, but may be =
desirable in=20
  the long run.  (And yes, I'm well aware of the feelings generated by=20
  such...er...discussions!)  =20

  I have been mostly a List-lurker for the past three years or more, but =
chime=20
  in occasionally when I believe I have something to offer, or when I =
feel it=20
  necessary to respond to something.  This is one of those occasions--I =
do not=20
  personally know Roger Jolly, but having watched his contributions to =
this=20
  List over a period of time, I have no doubt but what I would LIKE to =
know=20
  Roger Jolly, and I have no reason whatever to doubt him when he says =
what his=20
  store policy is.  As Newton has said upon occasion, "Perfection is a =
moving=20
  target, and one does what one can with what one has available at the =
time."  =20
  I couldn't agree more.....we try, and that is what Roger seems to be =
doing at=20
  all times.=20

  So........to the person who sent me this message........if you have =
something=20
  to say, say it.  We don't always agree, we don't always HAVE to agree, =
but I=20
  abhor such behind-the-back, underhanded tactics as this, and I will =
not=20
  suffer it quietly.  If you have an overabundance of vitriol, then find =
an=20
  outlet, but do it honorably, at least.......IDENTIFY YOURSELF and take =
such=20
  slings and arrows as may come your way!=20
