"Wreath Designs by Jeanette" was posted to this news group
yesterday---apparently in grave error.  The post was my first and I do
apologize for any breach of "netiquette".

I must say that some of the admonishments I received were unnecessarily
mean-spirited and would hope that in the future the possibility of an honest
mistake on the part of the user is taken into consideration before issuing
such harsh corrections.

I know this practice (flaming for group misuse) is quite comomn... I hope
one day people will stop and breathe first.  Technology has allowed us to
broaden our abilities and horizons.  We may now communicate with peole
farther away faster, cheaper, and more creatively.  Unfortunately, it's
also that much easier and faster to be quite demonic and mean-spirited.

Take care,

Eric
