<BR>Subject: Perhaps
<BR>
<BR>Hi Everyone,
<BR>
<BR>I think our listserv could do with a big dose of tolerance and courtesy.
<BR>
<BR>Perhaps before we reply to a post, we should all ask ourselves if our
<BR>comment is going to be helpful, and/or constructive criticism. If it is not
<BR>then perhaps just deleting the message that has upset you might be the
<BR>better course of action.
<BR>
<BR>If we are not here to help each other, and our fellow man, then what is the
<BR>point.
<BR>
<BR>Yes, this is a supposedly "tech" listserv about pianos. But that should
<BR>include discussions about "anything" that is helpful to another technician.
<BR>
<BR>Regards,
