My objections are not based on the opinions, but the lack of
collegial respect. Words like "skanky" are inappropriate on a
scholarly list. Part of what makes scholarly discourse possible, is
that one can express any opinion one likes, but it is done without
recourse to provocative hateful language. If you were Jewish and I
called you a kike, or a Moslem and I called you a raghead, perhaps
the point would be clearer.
