Here is the exact start of the first message I sent to the mailing list yesterday: "I just joined the Navigation mailing list. This semester I am taking an oceanography class, and this list looked interesting and informative. I am a novice in this area (but eager to learn!), so I am hoping to learn a lot on this list from the experts. We are currently studying Mercator and great circle charts, and I've already run into a few questions I am hoping you can help me with:" I was completely upfront about my goals. I continue to stand by my position that I have done nothing wrong. And, Mr. Emerson, I am completely honest in all of my dealings. Carolyn M.
