Cross posting is the practice of sending messages to more than a single place at the same exact time. For example this list and then carbon copying the blind wood workers list in the same message. What might be on topic for one list would most likely be on topic for the other ETC. David Ferrin Business conventions are important . . . because they demonstrate how many people a company can operate without. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike & Barbara" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, October 06, 2011 9:34 AM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] memo about the guidelines / Concerning CrossPosting Hi David; In the future, you might want to explain to list members exactly what you mean when you say, " Folks please stop trying to do this kind of thing. " There are members of the Blind-Computing list that are are not on the Jaws-Users list & won't see the email you posted there. I changed the subject line in this message to reflect upon what you are asking people not to do! For those that don't know what, Cross Posting, is; Cross Posting is, trying to post the same message to both the Blind-Computing & Jaws-Users lists' at the same time or, within seconds / minutes of each other. I Hope this helped, somewhat anyways. Take care.

The fact is this list is so huge at the present time that we have adopted the policy of simply removing people who don't follow the guidelines. They are normally free to return if they wish hopefully a little wiser but some times they choose not to come back. Either way going up to the server takes less time than sitting here composing messages such as what you are reading right now. The fact is we don't need the extra work, it's enough to read what comes across the list making sure the information exchanged is correct and on topic. Some times we still even take a moment to try and help out on here, also yes those of us who run this monster need some answers once in a while as well. Thanks for reading this and in advance for your continued cooperation.
