STOP THE RINGO THREAD!

Ok, the list admin has something to say here.
It is not often I have made any remarks on the topics discussed on the
list, or the way we "debate", but this Ringo thread is a new absolute
low for this list.

I strongly believe that unmoderated discussion and a wide range of
topics is what keeps this mailing list interesting, but the way this
thread has been going on is beyond any netiquette.

A few pointers;

- I strongly recommend reading the User Guidelines of mailing lists at:
http://www.fau.edu/rinaldi/net/dis.html

- This is an ACID JAZZ list. Other threads are ok, but please think
before posting with a topic which might not be of relevance to the
500 members of this list.

- There is no need to post messages that only says "me too" or "I also
like XXX's drumming". We have enough low-fi posts as it is.

- We *never* send email (to the list) where we call each other idiots,
or physically threaten anyone. If I see this again, especially from
datboy or Lo-ki, I will *UNSUBSCRIBE* that person! No joke.
