It appears as though my last email about etiquette has gone a little awry
(and I regret the misinterpretation).

I do not mean to suggest that everyone only talk about tomatoes, or bugs, or
compost (for example). I do mean to suggest that... oh... talking about a
murder that's made the national news, for example, is not what this list
serv is for. If you want to wax poetic on some subject, use a blog, not the
list serv, please.

Solidarity with Dorene is completely appropriate and informs us that we ALL
need to tend to our leases, city codes, etc. (all of which are related to
community gardening when they effect our gardens...). Please, my message was
not meant to chastise, we bond and it's all good. Just keep it cool, eh?
