If Fiona is soliciting votes as to whether she should continue puerile
flaming on a network that purportedly exists for the exchange of information
among reasonably mature individuals, then I vote no: I can take a joke and
have a sense of humor better than most, but there is no room for rudeness.
You might consider, Fiona, that with this medium, you are not there to arch
an eyebrow, crack a smile, or give any other non-verbal indications of your
intention--you lack even the freedom of vocal inflection.
Just a thought--please consider.
