Everything effects everything else everyday, at least a little. But  
while it will sometimes be a "judgment call", I think that in making  
it, we should try to keep our politics off the list. And I hope the  
list's moderators will require that (as part of a more general stay- 
on-topic policy).

I don't say this because I think John's politics are different from  
mine, nor because I think politics should be avoided in general. On  
the contrary, I'm very active. But because I am, I'm all the more  
eager to keep politics within bounds and to have parts of my life  
into which politics doesn't intrude. So far, photography in general  
and this list in particular are among those parts, and I hope it  
stays that way.
