<P>Eric and all,</P>
<P> </P>
<P> Let us all try not to forget that there has never been any official form of Netiquitte. such a concept is at best</P>
<P>nebulas, flexable, and changes far too often to be etched in stone as well as often times varies in the</P>
<P>same time frames with the various cultures. As the Internet is multicultural by intent as well as design,</P>
<P>any rules setting a form of Netiquette would be only applicable to a tiny few Internet stakeholder/users.</P>
<P> </P>
<P> The concept of Netiquette is far too often used as a means to disinclude, which is fundamentally</P>
<P>wrong and decidedly a form of Censorship. In such situations such has no place in any public</P>
<P>forum.<BR><BR><BR></P>

<DIV>I suspect you are not alone Sylvia. I think we are due for an upgrade in Netiquette. Somethings like bandwidth useage and mobile units and brand new filters and netservices are changing the landscape. Times have changed since 2000 and our first busy lists. Before silverware and glass -- they must have had totally different eating etiquette. Before additives and refrigerators they must have had extremely strict cooking rules. Major differences between Kosher and Chopsticks and Curing and canning .... Elbows on or off, burping and when not to, politics and religion at the dinner table?</DIV>

<DIV>This educational and explanable thread is most helpful in governance. No not someone getting a nose out of joint over a cc or 3 or 6 posts or cross whatever, but talking about it so we can better understand and act better ourselves. Good governance does not require decrees but rather examples.<BR><BR>--- On <B>Fri, 8/21/09, Sylvia Caras <I><sylvia.caras@gmail.com></I></B> wrote:<BR></DIV>
