Re: Information-vs-opinions -Reply

One of the best features of the human brain is its ability to analyze and
synthesize information, sometimes unconsciously, and come up with
"opinions" on complex issues.  I think Radsafe is enhanced by the
sharing of considered, informed opinions, expressed in temperate
language, related to technical issues that are within the Radsafe
technical purview or related to the conventions of communication by
Listserv.  That implies that ill-considered, uninformed, intemperate, or
technically irrelevant opinions, and especially ad hominem arguments,
should be expressed (if anywhere) somewhere else, not on Radsafe. 
That's my opinion.  I hope our discourse will always be courteous (or at
least civil).  This is a wonderful resource, and we are all responsible for
keeping it that way (My opinion; I hope it is shared)
