Agreed.
Speaking as someone who hosts a lot of email lists - it really gets
annoying when discussions of offense & netiquette crowd out a
substantive discussion. I'm almost at the point where I'm willing to
relax my strong "free speech" stance, to make calls for "moderation" or
banning people the one and only grounds for immediate ejection from a list.
