E-mail is another way to discuss philosophy. Some of you might feel more comfortable "saying" things over e-mail than in class (though you should still try to say things in class too). You can really think out your responses before you send them on e-mail. And maybe it is easier to bare your soul on e-mail. To qualify for a "C" you need to contribute more than a few of e-mail messages to LS-Purple throughout the quarter. Please, no "flaming"; be considerate, and argue about ideas without attacking people. For semi- (well, maybe less than semi-) -official "rules" on net etiquette, please see http://everythingemail.net/emailtips.html#netiquette and http://www.claris.com/products/claris/emailer/eguide/index.html.
