As a pragmatist, I feel moved to ask...
Does it seem possible that a thread like this might arouse sympathy in a direction other than what is intended? No matter what the reason, is this the best way to achieve your goals?
I know when I read posts, I hear more information about the poster than the subject of the posts.
As I said before, if someone receives an uncivil babblemail, it should be forwarded to Dr. Bob. No one can assume that because they write a babblemail they are safe to say anything. It says right on the babblemail that the civility rules apply. I try never to write any babblemail that I would mind having Dr. Bob review, because I realize that it can be forwarded to him. I would advise everyone to follow that rule.
I have really nothing more to say on the the topic. People will make their own choices to post according to their own values, and their willingness to live with the consequences.
