Dear All,
It is Jim's list. It is up to him how he runs it. I did not
want to cause any trouble. I just do not like being misquoted
or being used as a unwilling foil in an argument. Eisel
certainly was not being malicious, just rash. I have learned a
lot from his comments, esp. on Pali grammatica. As the old
saying goes, "it is no skin off my back." Since, I am the
newest member of the list, perhaps I should be the one to stay
quiet from now on.
I have learned much from all of you and I will certainly learn
much watching the conversations in the future.
Best regards,
justin
