Guest guest Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 I consider these discussions healthy, at least for me. Often things aren’t what they seem at first glance. Sometimes after much reading and thinking, I change my opinion or my mind on a choice I had made. I’m not wishy-washy, I just listen and ponder to be able to in the end be sure I’ve made the best decision. At other times, when I’m really upset or disgusted with something, it’s cathartic to talk about it. When I face bad news or tragedy, there are a few ppl I talk to – none are psychiatrists or in the counseling business, just dear, good and loyal friends whose wisdom and objectivity I trust. It’s the same with these listserves; I trust that my colleagues will eventually lead me to the right thoughts, diffuse my opposition, anger, or anxiety, give me the right advise, and help me. I’ve deleted many of the hundreds I’ve received, but then, I’ve also sent about ten thousand myself it seems. So if I’ve contributed to anyone’s distress over emails this time, that’s too bad. Not my intention at all.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 As Digna says, these discussions are very healthy. Like bouncing my ideas/concerns/problems off my close friends, the listserves serve the same purpose for my professional life.  My daughter is at FNCE and said the comments about the name change were mostly positive.  Madalyn To: rd-usa Sent: Monday, September 26, 2011 10:17 PM Subject: RE: No disrespect taken  I consider these discussions healthy, at least for me.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I don't sweet it. I think anyone who takes themselves out of the list bc they don't like a healthy conversation, it is their problem and their loss. I would not give it more attention. Lets get back to the main issue :)I L-O-V-E the conversation with all of you, whether we agree or not. I learn a lot and this is what this list is about.
