Discussion among Peers (was: Lighten Touch)

Yes, Bill, that was a good post.

But one thing bothered me when I read it.  It may
be that I've misunderstood and I'm sorry if I
have.  Feel free to set me straight. 

How do we have good discussion on matters of any
depth or complexity without saying things that
someone could use wrong?

Would it be better if this list was not so easy
to join?  Would we need to be RPTs to join the
list?

I'm not sure how you can make it better by
limiting the discussion to things that can't be
used improperly by someone.  And if it's best if
we keep the discussion to "how to tune a unison",
I'd have to say "Good-bye!"

It's those posts with some depth and insight into
areas some find "untouchable" that keep me coming
back and reading, which seem to be the ones most
in question as to whether they should be here.

What's the answer?  Restrict the discussion? 
Restrict the topics discussed?  Restrict access?

Just wondering...

Brian
