Personally I'm getting tired of all the little personal replies that would be more appropriate in a personal post! If I don't keep up with the List everyday I end up with hundreds of messages.

I don't know about it being courteous, Tim, but it surely does make for an awful lot of unneccessary scrolling for the 300 + subscribers when this occurs. FYI: Usually, anyone who speaks up about this type of matter usually takes at least one flaming hit. So if it does happen, you'll know you're not alone, nor the only person who might seem like a grouch. :-) Keith A.
