Subject:Re: OT: Criticizing your significant other From:TechWhirl Admin <admin -at- techwhirl -dot- com> To:Techwr-l <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Fri, 1 Aug 2014 09:52:01 -0400
Folks,
The rules are pretty clear... if you feel the need to add OT to a subject
line, it's not appropriate and shouldn't be posted. Sexism, ageism, or any
other isms, whether in fun or not, have no place here. Let's get back to
tech comm.
Thanks
Connie
