Flame

[FrodeauxB at aol.com]

In response to my universal prayer, I received a personal flame attack off 
list. I would not bring this to the list but for the fat that the sender told 
me to stop posting what s/he referred used a pejorative word to describe. 
When I questioned s/he's authority to censor the list postings and suggested 
s/he use the delete key, s/he replied that I made an unprovoked incendiary 
attack. Point, you ask? I don't like/agree with a lot of postings, and I have 
not since my early days flamed anyone on or off list using an ad hominem 
attack. I request the same. Further, if you fire the first shot, please don't 
expect me to be silent. Also, do not insult me by attempting to shift 
responsibility for firing the first shot to me. Such tactics are such a thin 
wisp of smoke they cast no shadow-it is easy to see the mentality behind 
them. The word fascist comes to mind. Again, forgive me for bringing this to 
the list, but it is that important to our continued discussions.
