While I may disagree with your idea, I fortunately didn't take it personally. In fact, I also have been in groups before where it was frustrating to have to wade through the stuff to get to the real stuff that I wanted to read. I am not sure if you saw my posts inquiring as to how you access this group, so I just wanted to follow up on that a little, because I think that can improve your experience of things, and because you're a new member, so we haven't had a chance to really show you yet that we have a lot of productive conversation and we value your input. The gist of what I had to say is that the problem of having to wade through irrelevant mush is largely alleviated if you have an email client that can receive the individual group messages (I always specify in non-html format which holds the size down if nothing else), which can filter them to the right folder and then put them in threads. If wanted or needed, I could also ignore individual posters though for this group I haven't had to do that with any sort of firm rule. I believe that the tendency to branch off into trying to make connections to seemingly unrelated areas is one of the most valuable premises of this or many other of the more-robust discussion areas. That said, I agree with you that there is no point to trying to access a group where you can't get readily to the posts you want to read. Another huge advantage of using an email client (not the web or a web-based email) for group participation is that all your work on your posts is saved. I use agent.99 for email, though it's a bit pricey. I don't like Outlook *at all* (as a security hazard), and haven't tried the other cheapies. I look forward to reading your various future comments, and getting an idea of where you're coming from on various biofuel related matters, and even on other matters. Thanks for reading. cc: to private email just in case the respondent is having difficulty accessing in an organized way, as seems to be sort of the topic. ------------------------ Yahoo!
