Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] RE: Explanation and apology
If I've come off a little strong on some of my comments, I'm sorry. I've actually held back a bit. I've never dropped profanity, just called it like it was.

But isn't it strange that all of the animosity seems to be focused in just one direction?

I wonder why.

"business" deal. As an uninvolved person, I feel compelled to make an
observation about this list.

This group can be very hostile in general, and this incident, which would
have gone virtually unnoticed on the other lists I subscribe to, is a
perfect example. I am a member of a VW Vanagon mailing list with 1600
members, and this list, with far fewer members, still seems to generate more
flames and email wars in a month than the Vanagon list does in a year.

Certainly there is a high level of "cliqueishness" to be found here, but
that doesn't begin to explain the level of hate I see transmitted back and
forth. What is up with you guys?
