Cindy said, about recent discussions:

<< Aw, well, this surely has gotten out of hand, no?  Laura says the OoP
derby brought in 20 responses, but I count over 40 responses that amount to
hand-to-hand combat over the "diversity" polling.  Go figure.  :)  Perhaps
we'll all take a deep breath over the weekend and get back on topic. >>

Indeed!!  I'm glad to see a range of opinions on the polls 'issue'.
Ironically, some of those comments gave us a far more revealing profile of
the posters concerned than we would have learned from an anonymous poll.

About 70 messages ago I posted the following:

"One final thing: If you have any further comments on polls, or any general
concerns, please send them to hpforgrownups-owner at yahoogroups.com rather
than posting comments on the main list."

This was an ADMIN request, but it looks like it needs repeating.  Any
further onlist discussion of this, and we'll be getting out that box of
Howlers in the corner of the office.

On the OotP derby, I thank Laura for taking a very sensible approach to
this, while some of you were ranting about the rights and wrongs of OT
Chatter.

Neil
