Hello, The below post is number 39 for the 'Whats Going On Saga' (including Vixie's ISP Vs. SPAM Monster, which has yet to spawn a sequel). And I would venture to say that 5-10 messages contained meaningful and not previously posted suggestions or material that would be helpful to the list. Here' s my question: Is it feasable or even possible to moderate a list of this size?? This list is rather large and see's quite a few messages daily. I have 1260 messages since Feb. 10th from this group. I like the list and plan on staying subscribed regardless, but I think some sort of moderation would be helpful to the list. Just a suggestion...

Paul, I loved your post about the light bulbs, it was hilarious... ------- Forwarded Message Follows ------- From: [email protected] Date: Sun, 20 Apr 1997 21:17:09 -0400 (EDT) To: "Matthew E.

Don't you feel a little silly posting both these statements in the same message? You certainly look it:( --- David Miller ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's *amazing* what one can accomplish when one doesn't know what one can't do! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
