I am also a subscriber to another list - listening-l where J
Krishnamurti's philosophy is discussed.

That list is also unmoderated and the list owner Dirk is rarely seen,
just like John Mead. That list also goes thru cycles of never ending
arguments and comes back again.

Looking at the similarities, it is very clear that we are dealing with an
entirely new medium of communication and so what some see as problems are
just builtin inherent nature of the medium.

To bring Democracy with its "rules" is no no.	If anyone does not like
this or any other list, they can easily make the choice of either lurking
or unsubscribing. If some have exercised their choice, it is ok. It is
their gain or loss which ever way they perceive it.

Try to bring controls either implicitly or explicitly will only shut down
this list. And many of us do not want to see it.

BTW are you a member of TS (Adyar) or any other organization and which
lodge/branch you belong to. I am just curious. You can answer if you want
to .
