My two cents

[David M. Hardy <HAADAV@MITVMA>]

Since the subject of onscenity has come up again, I decided to throw in my
opinion.  I find obscenity to be TOTALLY out of place in discussions of music
or anything else.  I just can't take seriously anyone's opinion if
they can't state it without swearing.  It shows that there is a certain lack
of mental ability to communicate, when people have to refer to bodily or sexual
functions in a vulgar way, when talking about something unrelated to them.
One of the reasons I started reading this mailing list was to avoid the kind
of stuff that goes on in net.music, vulgarity among them.  I am disappointed to
see what it appears to be turning into.

I'm not the person that sent the original message, but I'm glad to see that
someone else noticed this problem.  I suppose that in a list where not only
does the moderator not care but uses obscenities himself that nothing will be
done about it, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way.

DISCLAIMER:  I'm not a geek, a wimp, nor an expert on language by any means.
If I was a language expert maybe I'd understand half of the bizarre phrases
that are used here.  I'm not going to go away, either.
                                      Flames and obscenities to /dev/null...
