Re: ukha_ list



I assume you didn't mean this to go to the list Pedro?  I'm replying to the
list anyway.

I have already given Mr McGovern a "yellow card" last week (from
memory).  I
don't want to be doing that kinda thing though because it can be seen
(rightly) as a pompous and superiour attitude from me...and that's not the
sort if thing I want to do.  Indeed it's the lack of that which sets our
little community apart from the newsgroups that are so full of people like
that.

I do feel that Gerard does seem to be very confrontational with his posts.
I had hoped he would calm down a bit, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
I don't want to get into throwing people out and "telling them
off" though.
Lets all just join hands and sing John Lenon songs :)

Agreed.

I have several other private emails from the regulars along the same lines.
