I want to make it clear that my objection was just that. An objection. 
It was not intended to be an attempt to blackball said scrubbing, and I 
don't think, Cindy, that you should decide for the group that scrubbing 
should not happen. Why shouldn't this be something discussed and 
deliberated?

And if you plan to continue deleting posts where you discuss potential 
newbie-faqers, then you certainly should feel free to post to the list 
and then delete your post before the invitation is made, instead of 
sending offlists. Why not just post to the list and include a request 
that nobody quote you on the list when discussing the Potential? I know 
I'd respect such a request.
