I am surprised and concerned that there has been
very little comment concerning the content of some
recent messages.  I note in particular that

In my opinion, such language is both inappropriate
and totally uncalled for, particularly on a public
list such as this.  Whilst not everyone will
necessarily agree with the messages to which these
replies were sent, it would have been both possible
and infinitely preferable to cast the replies in
a considerably more moderate and less offensive tone.
