[sumo] Hawaii Jungyo??

[Ben Howell]

For Gosh sake's, Lynn!

Sumobaba was apparently chiming in to say that she would be coming (with a 
friend; does it really matter who?), in response to Katrina's post that she 
and her sister would be coming "form" Oz. Sumobaba's posting is entirely 
consistent with the subject "Hawaii Jungyo." OTOH, LM followed the post 
below with a solicitation inviting members of the list to come and see/buy 
her art. That certainly seems to be the kind of post that qualifies for the 
same disclaimer ("Sales") that John Gunning  was encouraged by other list 
members to adopt re: sumo items he lists on EBay for sale. Mr. Gunning has 
consistently followed the rules; when he is selling, he includes the word 
"Sales" in his emails to the list. When he is posting for the sake of 
replying to another's message, or merely contributing his own take on the 
subject under discussion, he manages to follow the appropriate list 
protocol, whatever it happens to be.

I'm sorry, Lynn. As much as I have admired the artwork you contributed to 
Lorna Sharnoff's book, Grand Sumo, a tome I would recommend to all on this 
list, I think you're out of line here. Let go of it, take a chill pill, 
whatever. Worst case, if you really have an axe to grind with Sumobaba, 
please take it off line and deal directly with her.
