Hey all you IMAGELIBBING Footstompers,I, for one, think that Stuart does an amazing job as moderator.
If anyone persists in even thinking about being critical of his services as moderator, then prepare for the rest of us to pitch in funds to buy a personal ad FOR YOU via Olga. And being a non-biased, open-gender listserv, I am sure that Olga could find container ships full of eligible men for the women or any other classifiable option to match any idealized "Image" that could be "scanned" from the population on this globe.
Let those with flamethrowers chase the scoundrels, and let the rest of us rejoice in the unique moment which points out how great the IMAGELIB.list actually is.
And to wave the magic wand of exoneration over Stuart's perfectious stewardship, let us review the IMAGELIB charter (obviously whoever served as the interpreter to Olga only mentioned THESE parts of the listserv charter [:^)]):
"...IMAGELIB is an [!!!]unmoderated[!!!] bulletin board ...Its purpose is to raise questions, solicit input, and share ideas. ...It is not intended to duplicate other lists...
For this listserv, topics for discussions range from:
1. ... preferences for particular clients.
2. ... regional significance.
3. ... Exploring issues....
4. ... Sharing success stories...
Another function of the list is to serve as a clearinghouse...
... we would like to receive information
... on projects that are in-development.
... Knowing who is doing what could ... promote sharing new ideas.
[ So, in summary, Good Job Stuart!!! Full Speed Ahead! And for the lucky sojourners via Olga, I hope we all get invited to attend the virtual wedding, virtual vacations, virtual child or pet births, virtual divorce court prodeedings, etc.]
