Arlen, you said:
>>I read this, and the first thought that came into my head is that it can
only work if someone on the list doesn't follow this suggestion. Think
about it: if everyone follows that suggestion, all it succeeds in doing
is
postponing the batch of correcting messages by a couple of hours. ;{>}
<<
Right, but given this list, don't you think it highly unlikely that
everyone will follow the rule?
Is there a name for a rule like that--one that works best if _almost_
everyone follows it?
And yes, I am having fun, thank you.
