I don't know about 'over' but perhaps slumbering. I know that I'm starting way too many threads relative to other people on the list.
Keep in mind that in the dark days when the 313 list started, people could subscribe without even having a regular internet connection. I think a fair percentage of people on the list were using terminals on University campuses, and hadn't yet bought a home computer or laptop. There was no Facebook, Twitter, Message Boards, You Tube, Bit Torrent etc. Detroit Techno Artists still lived in Detroit, or sometimes Chicago. They all had their original wives. I know, some of them still do. Perhaps e-mail lists are a vestigial feature of the Internet now. I have to think there is a whole generation who are on the internet constantly who don't even know what an e-mail list is, at this point. When there is a critical mass of active contributors it's still preferable to me for many reasons too boring to list. All you have to do to make it die is unsubscribe. Everyone makes that choice for themselves.
