"The extended, and often robust, nature of discussions on some of the At-Large Email lists, a style which does not sit comfortably with some cultures;" I understand the extended, robust part of this comment.

I guess open discussion itself is a cultural value. I'd be interested other cultural points of view. Sylvia
