Hi Paul I couldn?t agree with you more. Passing comments about other
people or organizations is simply wrong and I hope you won?t let it
continue.

Hi All,
 
It was nice to see the list so busy over the weekend. The bank holiday
didn?t  distract you from the work at hand. I would like to just bring
up a few issues here for clarification.
 
We had Raheme advertise a phone which a contact of his  had advised him
was for sale at what seemed like a good price and as I know Raheme I
would  certainly trust his judgment in putting this deal forward to the
list. It is okay to forward this kind of notice to the list provided
that the information is correct and not mis-leading. 
 
I  also looked over Noreen?s  request for help with the RTE site. Once
again the list deals with  issues of a learning nature and what she
asked for was help with trying to work over the site. However it was
evident that  there was a noticeable  opportunity taken for to knock an
organization for not making the site better. Noreen?s request was a
genuine one and I know not meant in any other way but simply to enlist
help but it was the quality of the replies that  came into question. 
On the issue of Braille, Tony, while this forum is for anything to do
with accessibility in a learning context including braille, it is not
here for a chance to have a go  at anyone or any business or
organization.  please take this to another list. Unless it is a tutorial
or some other form of learning material then I won?t  have this list
abused as a crusading ground. You talk about starting a new list
concerning Braille, please go ahead and do it and I wish you every
success with it.
Also list could I say that Any kind of remarks toward  people on the
list either they be employees of an organization or neutral will not be
acceptable either.
 
I have said it before and will say it again for anyone who might feel
uncomfortable with my  running of the list, I have told you that as far
as this list is concerned I am working on it independently and not as an
employee of the NCBI. I try to keep it this way if possible as it is
more relaxed and informal.
 
Paul.
