A Tor-Ch Al Chet
For the sin which we have committed by responding too often,
And for the sin which we have committed by not posting at all when we have
something valuable to say;
For the sin which we have committed by misinterpreting others' words,
And for the sin which we have comitted by not expressing ourselves clearly;
For the sin which we have committed by being sarcastic to other list
members,
And for the sin which we have committed by not being tolerant of their
positions,
For the sin which we have committed by not translating Hebrew words,
And for the sin which we have committed by assuming others know as much as
we do,
For the sin which we have committed by posting announcements directly,
And for the sin which we have committed by posting subscription commands to
the list;
For the sin which we have committed by forwarding messages without
introduction;
And for the sin which we have committed by cross-posting our own messages
to many other lists;
For the sin which we have committed by not using an appropriate subject
line,
And for the sin which we have committed by having a long .signature file,
For the sin which we have committed by quoting others' posts in their
entirety,
And for the sin which we have committed by not providing context to our
replies;
For all of these, Forgiving One, Forgive Us, Pardon Us, and Grant Us
Atonement.
