I guess having rules about what can and what can't be said, and about how long listmembers are allowed to take to say it, is at some level a way of assuaging anxiety at the prospect of just being amongst all the hundreds of people here, being suffocated, taken over by you all... Quite so. They're required. I shall prepare a set in the morning. In the meantime, you will please keep the noise down as I need to sleep. Especially Lachlan. Thank you. Ben

Hi
I agree with David Neices' comments on the increasing amount of irrelevant information and personal mails on this list. It has been very useful and still sometimes is, but it would be much better without all the 'by the way' comments, you usually discuss in a lunch room or other small circles - I wonder whether people realize that this list reaches many hundreds of people if not more? I strongly support that we try to follow David's suggestions.
Cheers, Rune
