If her tone is "brusque" as you call it, why have
at least ten people I know of personally, and I don't know a ton of people on
the net unsubscribed and in some cases, stopped volunteering altogether
due to harsh criticism by E. and others? People need to realize that
brusqueness in one affects others. Especially if one is new, they
will not know E. is brusque. they will assume rudeness was implied.
We should not have to tell new volunteers, "Oh, so and so is brusque, go ahead
and ignore that, they've gotten better". We've said this over and over and
I think that need not be said. Instead, people need to realize they are writing
to a public list and curb their emotions and brusqueness, as it were. E. has
been told for years she needs to be more mindful. this is just the last
straw, apparently.
