actually yes, some people feel a responsibility to aoir, their colleagues and the larger effort they share. some of these people are acquaintances, some are colleagues, and some are friends, many we've met f2f, some not. personally, i appreciate all the efforts that so many people put into this list and this organization, and i tend to feel responsible (though less so now that i am not directly responsible) to it and the community involved. i 'have to' do some things for aoir, and i suppose i always will.

its so sad that people (and I include myself here) have to waste their time and energy arguing over all this when there is so much else to be done - both onine and offline.
"Have to"? That's the feeling I'm interested in. Does everyone feel that? They can't help but read everything posted to the list? Where does that come from? Is it, as I earlier suggested, due to a holdover of f2f habits, or something else? --Christian
