[Paddlewise] Do not forward mail out of the list

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
