Everyone is encouraged to share their views and insight with members of the list on various subject matters. The list has proven to be a valuable communication tool and provides a safe and secure forum for members of a related field to gain knowledge and insight about others in the same profession on an International scale. No views expressed by members of the list are a representation of their respective department or agency. The list is an informal, friendly and respectful forum where all members are afforded an opportunity to express themselves in the privacy and security of other members of the same profession.

The following are a few basic considerations, which all members are asked to adhere to during their stay on this list. These guidelines have not been thrown together frivolously or without cause. I believe they are necessary for the good of this list. Flaming is openly assaulting another member with cussing, name calling, threats and other such attacks. This will NOT be tolerated in open forum.
