Perhaps the problem (although it’s not really a problem, more of
an

perhaps only

have a strong background
> in logical semantics (or Chomsky) and
thus find the discussions in this
> areas, at times, somewhat
difficult to follow, or dare I say it, of no
> interest at all.

>   Having stated that, I do sometimes  find the
discussions in these areas
> enlightening and occasionally (when I
do understand some small part)
> food for thought. In fact, I have
often been able to elicit the help of
> those in the above
mentioned fields for my doctoral thesis. If it
> weren’t for
these discussions, then I would never have had the
> opportunity
of ‘meeting’ them and getting the help I needed.

need to

However, when I am no

time to follow a thread, I simply
> delete the e-mail when I see
the subject line.  I would much rather have

have members feel they must curtail or censor their
> discussions
and debates.
