- Also in the most conciliatory way possible, I want to echo Russ's comment
- on posting private messages to the list as a whole. I might also suggest
- (as I have before) that MBUers not use the "reply" function unless the
- message they are about to send actually continues the discussion implied
- in the header. Frequently I'll call up a message because the header
- indicates a topic I find interesting--only to discover that the topic
- addressed is a completely different one.
-
- Otherwise, I'm in a wonderful mood!
