Re: net etiquette (another)



I also received an irate, rather profane email shortly after I sent a short
posting to vision2020 Sunday, Sep 19. I was startled, reread my message
which seemed non-inflamatory, and deleted the iritating response. I didn't
realize at the time it might be part of a larger pattern. I don't know if
the e-mail address was the same gte.net one to which others have referred.
But their descriptions seem similar.
