JL sent to the list a reply to a post of mine and he also forwarded a copy to me. I gave the "gatekeepers" a day to "approve" his post and then forwarded it to the list. They still haven't sent his post to the list. Until JL is given the full posting priviledges that all us others have, I'm leaving the list. If he is accorded those privileges, would someone please let me know. I truly do enjoy this list, but I can't go on ignoring the deep insult to someone I consider a good friend. I thought this crap would all blow over in a week or two. It's been several months now, if not over a year. Enough. I suspect nothing with come of this, so I salute you all. I would love to meet each and every one of you. Thanks so much for all the entertainment, the knowldege you've shared, your challenges to my little world and your generosity in squandering your time and patience. I'll miss you, all. Ciao.
