Even more annoying than the false virus warning, is the piling on and
pillorying of the person that sent it.  For some reason, public flaming
through the use of I-mail, is a tradition as old as viruses and hoaxes.  We
say things in public in front of hundreds of list members that we would not
say to a person over a cup of coffee.

What's with that???

We can make the same points while treating each other with dignity and
respect.  Bashing will only push people away, while teaching will encourage
new users to join us.
