Todd,

I am deeply concerned when anyone on a listserv suggests that they  
are making assumptions based upon "reading between the lines" of  
someone else's email.  We all know the inherent risks that occur in  
written correspondence where we have no feedback from body language,  
tone of voice etc.   It is well know that people are more likely to  
give meaning or insert impressions based on their own beliefs and  
issues rather than what the other person is actually saying.  This is  
one of the big challenges of e-mail communication and "reading  
between the lines" is a sure-fire prescription for misinterpretation  
and antagonism.

Suzanne

Staci,

For any of us who have read the posts here over the past years, it seems
apparent that this "original comment" was not out of character.  I am
convinced that there is a self-serving motivation which leads to the  
obvious
behaviors exhibited.  Honestly, it saddens me.  Unlike ASHA's  
division 13
listserve, this service seems blatantly pointed at certain individual's
personal character.  If you read between the lines, the extrapolation of
original intent is obvious. It is wise to uplift and promote...to do
otherwise is selfish and destructive.  Peace and self-growth are  
paramount.
