Did I really respond to a critique request on the Graphics List?  If I 
did, how stupid of me, my sincere apology.  Being a member of multiple 
lists (Graphics, Critique, and HTML), I'm aware of most of the rules.  
If I had broken the rule, it wasn't intentional.  I guess I should be 
more carefull about the origin of the posts before responding.  If 
someone know when and how I made that mistake, please let me know, 
privately of course, I don't want to carry this off-topic discussion on 
the Graphics list any further.

Collin and Kevin,

I know we as list members have the advantage of having December be a
"list-guide-free" period, to see if we can monitor ourselves and be our 
own
cops.  I think we should take this time and use it to our advantage, not
abuse it so that the "powers that be" can in turn become more lax in 
their
policies... believe me, I have been the victim of the implementation of
stupid rules.  I hate it and it sucks.

This thread about Kevin's site quickly became a topic for hwg-critique,
which I believe you (Collin) are also a subscriber of.  Please either 
deal
with it privately or send it over to that list.

The less weapons we put in the list guides hands to shoot us with, the
better a community this will be for all of us.

JMHO,

Ricardo Madrazo.
