Except, perhaps, in *this* forum where it is against list policy. Reason enough.
"Irrational reason" is an oxymoron.
Since it -is- list policy and you disagree with it you are free to start your own list under your own rules.
I'll use Patrick's. What is the problem, anyway? I think mark-up should be allowed. There's no reason other than being backward to prohibit it. That's my position and I have no reason to change it. Why does that translate into jumping ship? Can I not have an opinion without it turning into a big protest movement?
