to brenda:
yes! i am very new to the list and i was surprised to see the abusive comments about your post. one person (named budge or noonan) responded that all your posts were bad (i think he used the word "crap" or some such). so i went and looked at the archives and compiled an extensive list of your posts and links to them (it grew too long for me to post but i can if such analysis is useful), and found nothing particularly crappy about them (they were mostly about environmental issues in tasmania and australia) - they were informative and friendly. they were missing on long explications of habermas and also on intricate critiques of postmodernism and rap, but despite that, i hope you stick
around and continue to contribute - while i am new to this list, i
have been on and run many internet mailing lists, and even on this list i have noticed avoidable errors on the part of even those who criticize you. so dont let them bully you out!
