One on this list.  How many on the other have been turned off by the 
insidious, cultish attitude of the "other list."  And you say that one 
negative response on this list proves that your reservations and conerns were 
"well founded?"  

The tone of this post sounds way too much like an all-too-familar echo of a 
list I left awhile back.  It's like the other list spilling its caustic blood 
onto this list.  It's like a weed seeking to poke its roots into the fertile 
ground of this list.  It's like, there's not enough room on that other list 
to hold the venom so that it has to spill out over here?  Yuck, some of it is 
getting on me.

And now, for the DISCLAIMER: 

These are my opinions alone.  I am not posting here to try to persuade anyone 
that I am correct, nor to insist that you adopt my thinking as your own, nor 
would I be offended should you disagree with me, nor to suggest that if you 
disagree with me that you find some other forum in which to express your 
ideas.  None of that absolutely, and please do not take it that way.  God 
forbid that the world should turn on my ideas, alone.  I have enough trouble 
sometimes with them, myself.
