[Woodcarver] bad spelling chat

[Ivan Whillock]

 Even though he may have spoken in anger, Ben did take the trouble to say why he was leaving the list.  I believe generally that knowing is better than not knowing.  For example, when someone leaves I can learn more from an angry parting comment than I can if the person simply stifles his anger and walks away.  In both cases the person is gone.  In one instance I know why, in the other I can only guess.

Bill handled it well by not meeting anger with anger.   We also were reminded that Bill may lose some subscribers because he allows chat.  Chances are, however, that he will lose even more if he doesn't.  With that knowledge he can try to set a balance.

We can help by honoring the balance Bill does decide to set.

  Boy!  Did a skunk spray his wood stash, or WHAT!



  I know this is just another useless "atta boy" Bill <G> but, you deserve kudos for sending him off with a Blessing.  First thing that came to MY mind was "Don't let the modem slam you in the <proper anatomical term inserted here> on the way out".  Gotta work on my anger management I guess. 



  Keep on Carvin'

  There are a lot of  very  interesting emails, but the majority appears to be idle chit chat

  and  too many "atta boys" or "atta girls" as the case may be.

  It appears that the original intent of a woodcarving group has deteriorated to the point

  of childish patter.

  Enough is enough

  .

  Thank you,

  Ben
