Admin comment (fwiw)

As far as I can tell by reading through this thread, TWO emails containing 
material unnacceptable for list posting were offlist emails that got copied 
to the list by other than the originator. And other 'naughty words' in 
response were poetic creations by list members - not originated by the 
member being criticised.

The moderation system works reasonably well at keeping onlist content 
acceptable. If others want to be added to the list of moderatees so that 
they don't accidentally post naughty stuff that people have said to them in 
private, please apply offlist and it can be arranged.

If the aim is to get the existing moderatee in deep doo doos then it seems 
to be working. But such actions seem to be a bit like kicking a man when 
he's down, and not really worthy even of we Westies.
(Gargoyle may even know).

Please to let admins try and sort things out offlist and refrain from 
posting private missives and thereby bypassing the in-place system.

Many thinks in anticipation.

PS:  FWIW, ESD damage may not produce immediately obvious results, and 
sometimes effects may be subtle or nonexistent. But too often to be useful 
bad things [tm] do happen. In addition to the odd bit sticking or connection 
being completely vapo[u]rised you may see hig lakage conditions, or parts 
which run subtly out of spec. While the anti-ESD salemen may on occasion 
overhype the problem, its real enough to be taken very seriously.
