[tri-wings] Digest 279

>>>The main reason Kay is because I asked that discussions about this issue be 
>>>taken to the Family list. And only then if it can be discussed in a 
>>>reasonable, rational manner like adults and in a way that will not encourage 
>>>flaming. <<<

Karen I am a little confused why people cannot be "reasonable, rational manner 
like adults" on this list.  That has confused me a bit, i have to say. 

BTW I wasnt saying what I said as 'flaming' I was just expressing my feelings 
about this whole situation.  It IS serious and very very scarey.  I do not 
belong to the Family list, because I cannot cope with the amount of mail that 
keeps coming through (hence why I am now on digest).  So I am not to share here 
about it now? 

>>>Because of the huge size of these lists and the volume of mail that that 
>>>generates it really is necessary to have some rules and structure.<<<

I understand that - but I thought it did say in the rules that we could talk 
about...

"... how you are feeling today."

I was talking about my fears/anxieties and feelings - also that Donna's going 
to be directly affected if her boyfriends sisters fiance does not come back 
because they are all friends - and her friends have also been 'called up' now. 

>>>This also reflects our compassion and respect for others.  I am not prepared 
>>>for these lists to become a political forum nor a place for debate about 
>>>these issues. <<

I do not recall that I was discussing Politics here - e.g. I have not said 
slaughter such and such or in my opinion this or that Government should or 
should not be doing such and such a thing.  

Again, Karen, I do not see that I am 'debating' what is going on in the world, 
I WAS sharing MY feelings mainly on this and my fears.  

>>As you say there are many places on the net where you are free to discuss, 
>>argue and debate as much as you wish. These lists however are not some of 
>>those
places.<<

When I said that, I meant a general 'there are many places discussing this 
subject' - I didnt mean there are plenty of places I could share this.  Are you 
telling me that I am not allowed to share my fears/feelings now with this???

 Thank you.
