But David, this takes me back to the original
question: Is it really
offensive to call someone abusive? I, personally, would not use the word to
define someone, I would, instead, describe their behavior as abusive; but
isn't that, in the context of this List, somewhat nickpicky?
I'd generally allow it to pass myself in the first instance, FWIW.
Though I'd expect substantiation to follow. It's supposed to be a
productive working list for a project.
