	I agree completely with Mark Johnson's comments. Really, isn't
there enough conflict on these networks already? I don't mind watching
the flames flying over the political newsgroups or the ones where
objective facts are at issue, but conflict is really out of place in
this group. It bothers me. We are all expressing how we *feel* about
being single (or not single) and the problems that go with it. Some
constructive comments may be in order, but not personal abuse.

	Before you flame at a message, consider that it represents the
feelings of a real, flesh & blood person who is now vulnerable for having
opened up to you in a public forum. Imagine how you would feel if the
scathing comments were directed at *you* in front of your peers. Try a
little tolerence, and just a bit of personal restraint.
