Ditto... I would say that 90% of the e-mails on the opensrs lists are out of control off-topic discussions started by on-topic posts. No...don't go and compile the statistics to prove my 90% number wrong...just let well enough alone.

No, let me rephrase... I was not annoyed by the posting even a little. But the endless discussion about it has me upset. Reading this stuff takes time. If you feel that guy wasted yours, that's bad, but don't then proceed to waste mine with non-helpful replies and complaints. --On Tuesday, February 26, 2002 12:48 PM -0800 William X Walsh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Tuesday, Tuesday, February 26, 2002, 11:57:33 AM, Paul Chvostek wrote: > > >> Personally, I think *any* regular posting of the same information to >> this list should be considered abuse.
