Well, the question has been raised - should freepmails adhere to forum standards regarding profanity, implied profanity, and/or personal attacks? I've always understood that to be the case. Maybe I'm mistaken, then, since Howlin has said otherwise.
I must be lucky -- I've never received a profane freepmail or one that personally attacked me. I did receive an obscene e-mail from a couple of the Desperate Housewives who wanted to meet me at a Holiday Inn if I would wear a flight suit and a George W. Bush mask, but I'm a gentleman and wouldn't say who they are.
