    Natasha posts the List Rules, which include this important paragraph:

         Personal Attacks: We do not allow personal attacks or
         libelous statements. Those violating this rule may be
         removed from the List without notice. Those guilty of
         an ad hominem attack (i.e.: attacking the character of
         a poster rather than combating the argument the poster
         proffers) will be subject to a private warning on a
         first offense and a temporary or permanent ban on each
         subsequent offense.

    Such is our happiness at the present time, that I do not believe
    such draconian measures necessary. (This could always change.)
    At present, I suggest that the offended party merely point out
    the vacuity of the other's remarks, and request that such displays
    of loss of control be curtailed.

    It wouldn't hurt anything for others to point this out to an
    offender, perhaps best off-line, for I don't think that anyone
    here at this time deliberately engages in personal attacks.
