The list was always intended to provide information for a broad range of stakeholders, but not a lot of discussion, especially no flaming. </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197931"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197932">Denise and I discussed her participation in the list and we both agreed that she is not a good fit for the list. At her request, I unsubscribed her. </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197933"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934">In the future, if there are such discussions that are bothering people, please contact the originator privately and express your feelings, not to the whole group. </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934" dir="ltr">If you feel that I should intervene, please let me know privately as well. I don't like to censor people, even if they have a completely different opinion than I do, but I also believe that this list provides a good public service and I will do whatever it takes to keep members on the list. I probably let the last episode go on too long. Thanks to those of you who contacted me about the situation.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934" dir="ltr">My heart goes out to all of you who lost your homes and businesses in the fires. </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934" dir="ltr">If you wish to tell me what a great guy I am or what a jerk I am, please reply to me privately, not the list. </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_197934" dir="ltr">Sincerely,</div><div></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_198011"> </div><div class="signature" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_198013">Tom Stokely <div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_198016">Env-Trinity list manager</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_198012">530-524-0315 </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_198015">tstokely@att.net </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534179591630_198014"><br></div></div></div></body></html>
