also Re. New Mills, S/N etc. SImon
You posted about people including original messages etc. with replies (asking them not to). I (and others) have also put in requests about this. You then go on to ask: "Does that sound like a reasonable request, or should I just give up on trying to read the digests and subscribe to the normal list ?" Dunno if you were joking or not but honestly, based on my experience, I advise you to do it. I made this switch and it is now so much easier to quickly scan to see if a post's of interest or not. It helps if you're in a position to set your e-mail package up (I used "Rules Wizard" in Outlook, don't know about other packages) to redirect 313 stuff to a special folder where it sits not clogging up your regular Inbox - a bit like the digest! I got back to work today after Easter to be faced with a rather large number of mails - mostly about colour [we can spell it that way if we want because it's our language ;-) ] - which I soon made short work of! Incidentally this also fixes the mails that come out as undecipherable code in the digest (which I guess means it's something to do with the way the digest is compiled which scrambles them). Finally, re. Sean Deason's mail, I thought it amusing (not really) that the minutiae of discussion regarding one artist's views and peoples views of his views leaves us without the contributions of another who I have records by. Peace to all It is my intention to offend no one Francis
