[nabs-l] money-making opportunity for students

[Jedi]

Public or private doesn't matter to me, but that was just plain 
tactless and out of line. Even if your statements are true (and I am 
not qualified to make that judgement), I would highly encourage you to 
be careful how you word things electronically for two reasons: first, 
electronic messages are permanent in the sense that they will always 
exist somewhere in the netosphere either in some way out of the way 
place where deleted files are kept or in someone else's electronic file 
drawer; second, electronic messages (especially those in writing) can 
easily be taken way out of context because the other social cues we 
rely on (the non-verbal stuff like tone of voice and body language) 
aren't there to really derive subtle meanings from. with those two 
things in mind, the wise business person is careful in her or his  
language to customers and staff (and anyone else for that matter) 
because one never really knows. Just a friendly reminder.

Respectfully,
Jedi Moerke
List Committee chair
