Today I saw a message from Paddlewise forwarded to CPAkayaker. DID YOU GET THE AUTHOR'S PERMISSION TO DO SO ? If it is really an interesting subject for someone outside of the list, it might be alright to forward _all_the_postings_in_the_discussion_ with _previous_author's_consent_. But forwarding someone's postings outside of the list is not only unethical, but might create a lot of confusion and trouble. Our discussions are valuable because we can express our opinions freely in this limited group, and allow ourselves to be cricized, corrected, or get additional input and learn even more about the subject about which the opinion was expressed. A posting, without the rest of the discussion is out of context. It is likely to offend someone outside of the list, and embarrass the author of the posting, to say the least. Please do not forward any postings outside of CPAkayaker, of Paddlewise, without the author's previous consent. - Julio *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Nov 02 1998 - 13:22:12 PST
