are really offended by off topic emails, or is it the squeaky wheel getting the
grease? Are we really so important that we mustn't be interrupted by a
community discussion?<br>
Personally, I find list serves to be community forums for folks with
potentially like minded interests, and accept the occasional grey area topic
with no problem. I also like to know who else you folks are, besides our
select common interest. As was said, the delete key works just fine.<br>
Additionally, these discussions are like relationship "discussions",
variations on the same old topic, aka Argument/Discussion 4. (Excuse my
humor if you don't get it.)(Also, excuse my use of the bandwidth.)<br>
