[MPWG] Medicinal plant conservation, I presume

[Patricia_DeAngelis at fws.gov]

Dear Steven,

My apologies for not interceding earlier.  There were some previous
indications that this was coming but I was not prepared for it to explode
as it did yesterday.

In addition to the general message I have already sent out, I am taking
other measures that may help to prevent such digressions in the future
(such as revising the website to include netiquette parameters).

Thank you for your continued contributions and feedback.

Sincerely,
Patricia

Dear fellow list serve sufferers,

To all who wish to discuss the polemics of traditional medicine vs
modern medicine, science vs empericism, personal health problems and
herbal cures for them, political and personal views which don't have a
thing to do with medicinal plant conservation, can you please, please
find a more appropriate forum? Is it possible that this list serve can
actually be about medicinal plant conservation issues, even in the
broadest sense? There are plenty of herbal and medicinal plant forums
for chat and chatter.  Does this list serve have a moderator?

Thank you,

Steven Foster
