OK -- would any of our colleagues at Georgia explain 'what' is Lee Reed? 
Lee?

Well, Lee can be found at 
http://www.terry.uga.edu/spotlight/faculty/lee_reed.html
and I very much like this sentence in his bio: "Reed also has served as 
editor-in-chief of the field's leading research periodical, /American 
Business Law Journal"

/Lee is one of our very fine colleagues who along with me, and a host of 
other forgetful characters, has been known to hit return on ALSB talk 
and extend his thoughts to the whole group when intending them for a 
more select few.  You will get used to an email from one of us that 
hopefully makes little sense and then a hastily sent further email that 
asks you please to ignore the one before.

But you are right on your point re collegiality and ethics. I just hope 
people do not in fact get turned off by this action.

>Thanks Sally-Of course you are correct, no one should have any expectation of privacy in what they say 'on the internet' as David points out, but the issue here is one of collegial trust as pointed out by Bob and many others. The anonymity and the direction, to her supervisor without copying her, of the forward are unsettling. It is not a question of legality but of ethics. In any event I appreciate your comments and surely one bad actor should not spoil a good thing and I do look forward to seeing everyone in Long Beach if not sooner!
