so it goes

[Terrance]

Yes, I considered it counterproductive and needlessly
adversarial.  
 
To keep noting how astonished you are that some members have
so
much free time on their Heads is not conducive to
cultivating the agreeable atmosphere you obviously want. 

So it goes. 

It is a very difficult task, keeping things civil and
constructive.  

I don't envy s~Z even a little. 

I expect that you will giggle your way out of what seems to
be a futile
attempt to bring a classroom, even seminar seriousness to
the list discussions. 

Now, it's not that I don't respect
Graciousness, yours, mine, by which I mean tact
and propriety, but I prefer to responded to the insults with
gracious humor because even goodly Graciousness will be read
as condescendingly courteous. 

Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,
Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for
snobbery, Got the message this morning, the one that was
sent to me
About the madness of becomin' what one was never meant to
be.
