That's funny you should say that now Sellam, because you were the first one
to post to me privately during the great "reply-to" debate that "it is your
list, take care of it well....", and "you make the rules... do what you
wish". I will go dig up your past private email to me that said just that if
you would like. You have also posted words similar to that on the list in
the past, I noted them well. I find it interesting that you are suddenly
changing your tune. Does your past stance on this issue no longer mesh with
your adgenda perhaps?

You do get some input. I listen. However I also make the final
determination. If you don't like it, or feel that I don't get reasonable
input from the list members, please feel free to start an alternate list -
that appears to be your motivation in any case.

Infiltrated with Spammers? See Jerome's recent post on this topic for a
reality check Sellam.

That statement is what a flamer would call a "target rich environment". I
think I'll leave the gauntlet on the ground.

Sellam, you're trying to bait me. I'm not falling for it. Live with it.
