I appreciate the intent of this.

I hope that you are going to publish this as list guidelines somewhere
as it does represent an arbitrary measuring stick.

I'm not certain that I've seen any comments that wouldn't have been made
in a professional work environment so far on this list - except for the
fact that I've never seen management make references to assholes.

What we are talking about is the subjectivity of tone - and probably
most specifically, the tone embodied in some of Bryan's postings and the
reaction thereto which escalated the exchanges to a level that became
grating.
