Well, private discussions are one thing.  But, I would very much appreciate some guidelines on what was [in]appropriate content for the mailing list.  It's probably obvious that I have no social skills and, hence, no ability to infer what's [in]appropriate.  Being relatively free with the thread collapse and delete buttons, I can end up pretty biased toward the things that interest me, which runs the risk of crossing the [in]appropriateness boundary.

Glen,

I was not trying to inhibit anyone.  I was trying to tease about the fact that no matter how interesting something is to one person, that same thing is likely to be a bore to someone else.  And therefore, there should be NO guidelines in friam, other than the politeness, kindness, and forbearance that have been shown me in abundance.

Insisting on any one topic would be the intent of a reductionist.    Now back to philosophy!

Nick,

Rest assured, all your posts are well within the ethereal boundaries. 

That said, any future posting of neo-darwinist-inspired evolutionary psychology logic will be considered bad aesthetic form ;-p

Neo Darwinism is well accepted here in my coordinates. Robbing and misusing (just s little) Dobzhansky's famous sentence: Nothing in "my life" makes sense except in the light of Evolution.

Some times my Bogotanian English make me lose the thread but It does not matter. I enjoy it.

Felicidades
