 James Green-Armytage wrote eloquently about the feelings of most of us
who've watched the personal argument. I would like to add this, if I may be
permitted.

I came to this list to learn from folks who knew more about a subject in
which I had developed an interest, and I appreciate the help that many of
you have given me over time. The list is valuable to those of us who do not
as know as much as we all should about such things.

But I read the list for that reason. When I see a posting with an ad
hominem, I know that the author has nothing to contribute to my knowledge
other than that he or she does not know how to present a logical argument. I
may have missed a lot of interesting and useful information because I hit
"next" or "delete" when I see such, but I would rather remain ignorant than
wade through personal attacks.
