The usual way to try to shut down someone is to attack him/herself 
personaly, rather than the arguments and facts. In that way of 
thinking, I see you have two different ways, or you give the others 
two choices: you speak, they are silent. Or, second option: they are 
silent, you speak.

In the context of the CT, I could go ahead and say (but I don't say 
it, I just might say it) that same goes for anyone who is not 
unemployed, and is participating in this list. I am sure we can find 
some interest either in an academic institution, in a project, in a 
grant giving organization, in a company, in you-name-it to be on this 
list, and participate with opinions, which later may be entered in 
the monthly or quarterly reports. To say that someone is a civil 
society volunteer only if he or she does not work somewhere, or even 
more - to claim that in the employer's contract of Kieren there's a 
point which says, "mass participation in mailing lists of the civil 
society" is equally wrong.
