George,
you took the words right out of my mouth - I was just going to write a
similar letter. Let me add a suggestion: With the experience from the
past, let's think twice in the future before we send personal remarks or
replies to those messages to the entire list. Most (all?) of this stuff
can be handled offlist and I had to notice that even ignoring sometimes
helps...
BTW: Those who wrote that this list has changed, certainly are right: It
now is (very close to) what it once used to be and what it should be in
the future.
