Did you not notice the people demanding that this topic be taken elsewhere?

Did you you notice the person suggesting Brad is incompetent for 
disobeying orders to reply off this list?

I have noticed some people distinctly disinclined to allow this topic to 
be discussed in public.

I have noticed some people clearly inclined to discuss this topic 
elsewhere even _expressing_ wishes to impose rules on the unruly masses.

No, I don't believe there is a secret board mailist.
I do believe people exchange emails.
People of honesty know that a certain amount must occur.
People of integrity know that it must be kept to a minimum,
and that substantive discussions must be made public.
