[Air-L] the principle of charity

[Burcu Bakioglu]

I am going to second this post after what went down on this list within the
last few weeks. I, for one, don't feel like posting anything here anymore
for fear of being ruthlessly judged and cornered into a defensive position
rather than being engaged in a constructive argument. There are a lot of
other things I can say on this, but I won't. That would be my two cents...
