   EXCEPT THAT: there are legitimate posts of great interest to the List
and to collectors, which come from non-subscribers.. the Robot, while an
interesting idea, is pre-destined to throw the baby out with the
bathwater.

  I still will volunteer to 'screen' the non-subscriber posts, if a way
can be devised to send them to me first. NOT the whole traffic, however,
just the Phoren ones.

  A fairly common ( as such things go) dictating / early phone answering
machine. Interesting? Yup. On Topic? Welll....
