I am sending this post to the moderator of this list, and to the list
in general.

Moderator:  Please moderate the list.  I'm sure you are busy, but this
list seems to be full of uninformed flamers.  Perhaps it is just a few
persons who continue to remain uninformed, while the rest of us type
`d' at our mailers.

List: Lighten up, and stop flaming about non-issues.  I will give you
a concrete example:

      >A typo?  eh?  Where did you learn to type?  If your going to reply to a
      >message be SURE you check what you've written so that NO ONE will misinterpret
      >it!

	Sorry, next time I'll re-check the article 5 times before I send it, and have
	5 or 6 friends double check it, and take a typing course in the mean-time.

This is ridiculous.  Even if no-one else wants to say anything, I felt
that before removing myself from this potentially informative list I
should make the attempt to communicate my thoughts.

Brian, this isn't the "moderator" speaking, but you should be aware that
the Apple II information list is at least three lists with cross-feeds,
and so far as I know it is unmoderated, at least on the Internet side.

Be thankful that this list has much higher S/N than most such lists that
are available on USEnet.  It's one of the few I still subscribe to.
