[PEN-L:6194] humor and sensitivity

Henry made a useful point.  Get a K Liu is clever, but it can also be
insulting.

Some people come on the list blasting away, shooting from the hip.
Louis P. is an example.  I hope that it is fair to say that although his
politics are serious, his demeanor is playful and he is thick skinned
enough to take ribbing.  Others are more easily insulted.  We need more
attention to such matters.

We should also be careful about attributing views to others.
