Nancy here: 
I appreciate your frustrated sentiments, Brian, I do.
However, this list has no moderators, and if it did -- and had indeed banned
people for "flaming" in the past -- we'd be without several current
listmates, whose contributions are invaluable!

We can only hope the offenders will "recant" or humbly apologize :)
for their faux pas (or insobriety!), like the aforementioned
(anonymous-but-you-know-who-you-are) listmates did --
very admirably and honorably. (I respect them now more than ever.)
