Absolutely. I originally set follow-up to .debate because of the potential for
controversy or flames. I didn't make it an adminstrative issue becuase I try
to give the benefit of the doubt, and suggested it might be in error, and
offered a solution to that error.
This was before I saw his post in .trains that also contained private
information, as a completely independent post. Once I would give the benefit
of the doubt, twice I would ask for explanation.
As an independant observer (and at roughly 7 months of participation, nominally
a newbie myself) I would suggest that Kurt seems unaware of many of the finer
points of net ettiquette, and did not respond well to attempts to remind him of
this, but he certainly hasn't done anything we haven't seen before (even in
only 7 months), assuming he can provide an explanation for the e-mail glitch.
And, of course, it ain't a patch on what TRL sees regularly.
