Katim,
The above paragraph sums up how I feel about this issue. I followed all the
postings leading to Ebrima's threat to leave the list. I did not see anything
that warrants him to leave. If Ebrima is indeed of the journalistic calibre
that we have come to associate with him, then he should be able to handle
those exchanges with ease. Otherwise I must conclude that either he lacks the
stuff that makes a good journalist or, as someone has already stated, he needs
some 'ego reduction therapy'. If the latter is the case, then I hope the
numerous "please Ebrima" postings have massaged his ego enough for him to
stay. I too want Ebrima to stay. But I aint saying "please"!

best regards,
Modou.
