My sentiments exactly! I've been reading TECHWR-L for only 24 hours
and have *not* been impressed by the blatant lack of respect for
other listmembers. (Have I been spoiled elsewhere or what? Doesn't
anyone have any *work* to do??) It's surprising, because several
people have recommended this list to me.
How about taking the dirty laundry off-list?
Thanks,
