  He didn't post a resignation, no. He did, in private email, cite a
couple of folk in particular as irritants, but I think it was the
overall picture that got him fed up.

  I, even as a primary participant in the latest exchange, don't see the
bigger picture getting worse. Not in the last 6-9 months, anyway. The
list is noisy, yes. We could be better-behaved, yes. I like whatever
signal remains enough to paw through the noise.
