I don't know, but with the exception of Conculture and the list for my church student group, other lists I've been on have a lot of such "flaming idiots". One of the reasons I left an X-Files list was such absolutely ridiculous and overly-emotional arguments between Shippers and No-Romos (two major factions of X-Philes, Shippers = (Relation)shippers, those who want to see a romantic relationship between Mulder and Scully, No-Romos = No-Romance, those who don't want that to happen), which involved attacks on personal character. That and during the summer, when there's no new eps to talk about, it gets rather boring ... Conculture was an offshoot of this list, so the same people were there, and my church student group are personal friends, so that brings peace to the list. I have no idea what makes this list so nice, but I'm glad. I figure, don't question a good thing. :-) -- "Cats are rather delicate creatures and they are subject to a good many ailments, but I never heard of one who suffered from insomnia." -- Joseph Wood Krutch http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/X-Files/ http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/Books.html ICQ #: 18656696 AIM screen-name: NikTailor
