It also seems, for people like me, I've learned a lot of 'what not to
do' by seeing peoples replies to others posts telling them.. well, what
not to do. If all these were taken 'off list' you'd have a whole lot
more people doing bad things because they wouldn't have seen yet not to
do it, not to mention a whole lot more people having to send 'off-list'
complaints to people, due to the same reason.

All jokes aside now (glad you took it that way Mike).  Maybe I havn't
gave 
the tutor enough attention, but I have never witnessed someone jump down

anothers throat because they posted in all caps, didn't enter a subject 
etc... etc...  The one time I have seen an argument (well heated debate)
was 
about a subject entitled 'Losing the expressiveness of C' (or something 
similar), which I found pretty interesting.
