Guest guest Posted September 24, 1999 Report Share Posted September 24, 1999 It seems to me that people use this list for two purposes, and that those purposes sometimes conflict. 1. Those who use it to socialize. These are the users who often take advantage of the three-posts-a-day limit, and would probably post even more frequently if there were no rules. 2. Those who use it for information. These folks would probably be very happy to receive no more than one or two messages a day. There really is no way of completely reconciling these two separate missions. (Two lists? No way, for a whole host of reasons.) However, those who are looking strictly for information should consider switching to a " digest " subscription, so that you'll receive just one or two posts a day consisting of all the day's messages. You'll still have to scan through a lot, but it should be quicker than going through tons-o-mail. To switch, go to: And log in with your user name and password. If you threw out the message you got when you first subscribed, and if you ignored ALL of my posts on how to log in and manage your account, well ... drop me a private e-mail at dkennedy@..., but please don't post questions to the list.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 Dear Kees, I have been a member of this list for one year and I agree with you. I bring up subjects to mostly no response. We need to include more subjects and topics and respond to more people. I don't want anyone to use this list to make a living but I do appreciate info on products used successfully and where to get it. Anyone else like to respond to this?

As i understand it, it's because no-one really knows anything about them so they have no information to respond with. I've also noticed that this isn't a very social group. I've tried to start conversations but it seems that no-one is really interested in that form of communication. Would you like to try to get a string started on a particular subject?
