[diversity-talk] Neurodiversity and CoC

[Randal Hale]

In general - yeah. But if we all unsubscribed who would get offended. 
Alyssa already set the mark for worst person in existence and I always 
thought that was the other guy.

I can't decide if I find it all funny or sad. I'm leaning more towards 
sad. But then I'd offend those with Season Affective Disorder...and get 
42 emails describing me as the 2nd worst person ever past Alyssa.

Anyway,

Randy
