Nicely put for those who exercise their delete finger. I have
enjoyed the health care back-and-forth, and even the Bill Nye
insert. I went to the posting and saw where the Waco paper had
pulled the article from their website. See, computerspeak. This is
a great list-serve. Use that old delete button. All of us can slide
things back on topic anytime. It's called having a question and
pressing send. The responses will follow.

I've discovered the great utility of the delete key. It bothers me
naught
if members want to talk about health care or football or politics or
religion. We usually get off on these tangents from a computer-
related
starting point. For the most part the list members are a pretty
thoughtful
bunch and even when I disagree I can still learn something
interesting if
only that we are a heterogeneous group with a diversity of opinions.
And there's always that delete key...

I think he enjoyed the computer talk here, but didn't like some
of the
people.
Well, he seems to prefer orthodoxy to anarchy. I don't think the
medicine
discussion belongs here either, and what they do or don't do in
Waco is a
matter of supreme indifference to me.
But I know how to read selectively, and for the most part this
list stays
on topic.
