I'd like to join my voice to those speaking from the other side of the issue. On this forum, we are speaking in a 'virtual town square'. The whole reason for the list is to allow for a public discourse among individuals who would not communicate privately otherwise. Someone following our
discourse is not eavesdropping in my opinion, because we don't have any
reasonable expectation of privacy.<br><br>Personally I think we should be flattered that someone cares enough about what is interesting to our fair town to look at our TownTalk listserv and report on it. I don't think anyone 'crossed any lines' reporting about the rooster- it was just letting others in on what we were talking about. So I appreciate the interest.<br>Kathy <br></div></div></div><br>
