Vocal Minority

  In all the interesting discussion re: the 'reply' function (and I
am a tad annoyed that I have to get two copies of each reply, from
each person who replies, to a message that I posted, separated by as
much as 15 minutes) I got to thinking that there might be 25 or 30
listmembers who actively post messages out of... ??? how many
subscribers? 200? 400?

  Are (we) attempting to dictate list policy for the majority?

  Is anyone keeping even a rough record of the 'Old' vs 'New' camps?

  If votes be kept... I am tending to like the 'Reply To:'
functionality the way it >WAS< ... ie' hitting 'reply' [in Pine]
replies to the List and not to the Poster. I am one of those who
has no control over the configuration of Pine, and, it would seem,
neither does anyone else at Netcom/Mindspring/Earthlink, or whatever
they're called *this* week. ;}

 Speaking of S/N ratios... I got a pair of DEC Pro-350 machines,
with a large amount of original software packages, documentation
etc... are there any other 300/350 owners out there who are trying
to restore a system? I may be able to help with printsets, etc.

   
  Cheerz

John
