I say give him another chance with the understanding that those who are
abusive will be cut from the list after one polite warning from Bruce.
The quality of our community is the sum of our interactions. Isn't
there already enough rudeness, sarcasm, spite, sting and invective in
the world? Why create or tolerate more of it? What kind of community
do we want?

I think the philosophical (not to mention historical) question is
important. Why did the komusos play the shakuhachi? Why do we play it
now? =20
