Is that spelt CUR?

Anyway - do you think the rules may be constructively modified in any way to encourage "niceness" or, as they say, is it impossible to "ruleify" it?

Maybe the boys are right - we all keep the tone non-personal, and if somebody accidentaly gets out of hand we mention it to them.

Actually it's been pretty good, up to now, with a couple of minor exceptions.

(PS It was obvious that VanderL(ulu) was of Dutch origin. How long have your antecedents been settled in the States?

Another thing - you say that VanderL stands for Van de Locht. Strange! "De" is usually French, whereas "Der" would be more Dutch. Was the "De" a typo?)
