Brava, Karen. Defamation of character can occur on a list. It's presence on a
list is like a pregnant chad --- very debatable, and somewhat toxic to your
political and social health.

I received a private email regarding my choice of the word 'slander',
pointing out that vitrioIic language isn't against the law. I certainly
don't mind being corrected. On the topic of slander, perhaps I chose the
wrong word. I wanted to introduce the idea that freedom of speech and
regulated human behaviour can co-exist. we can have a moderated list
without censorship, but there need to be rules. Email lists are so
public,
that negative characterization of another person could be some form of
'defamation of character', and is not to be entered into lightly.
