The problem with that was that the posts where primarily questions only,
all the replys or answers went directly to the original poster.
I subscribe to this list to "listen in" and learn. People post a good
question.... I think to my self "that's an interesting question/problem/
comment/whatever", and I wait for an answer from one of the experts.
I may even file it away for later. The way it was, I saw mostly questions.
Since I don't have all the answers, there would be no good reason to
continue to subscribe.
Frankly, a little bit of noise doesn't bother me if there a STRONG
signal.
Regards,
Ed
