How about a post to the list to not ever say anything that anyone may
have heard or seen bfore?
Geez!! Lighten up, folks. Remember when you were new and enthusiastic?
Remember telling a joke at a party that everyone laughed at, even if
they'd heard it before? Give the Newbies a break! Everyone wants to
prove that they an fit in -- that's all. It's just an e-mail. If you've
seen it, delete it!! Fer cryin' out loud, you guys can be the most
unforgiving bunch of wordsmiths on this lil' blue marble of a stone!!
Give these folks a break -- the Subject usually says SUESS or POEM or
GRAMMAR CHECKER -- what else do you want? A phone call??
I'm done.
Have a good weekend.
