[Spooks] list administrivia

[Mitch Carlyle]

Ben,

You really are missing the point.  What say, a person is not experienced 
using footers/headers?  How can you hold it against them?  If a member asks 
politely, grant their request.  What's the harm with that?  If they are 
complaining and whining...sure we have a right to voice our opinions.  In 
civil society, there is NO need for behavior like tpadave, 
displayed...  And I firmly believe there is no need for the attitude you 
have displayed either, Ben.  I hope reflections of this, will instill a 
sense of kindness in a few cold souls.  Feel free to discuss this off list 
with me if you'd like.  Take care

Mitch
