Seth, et al.
I would say, that at this time, it would be fine for headhunters to post, as long
as they keep things reasonable, but I wish to put no limitations on the list, even if
people want to say things that i do not like. I dont really think there will be any
problems,
after all, who in their right mind would want to piss off a large group of system
admins? that could be
easily considered a suicidal act from a tech oriented person needing network services
to do thier job...
If a situation arises, Im sure that Ed or I will attend to the list, and if people on
their own wish to
block messages to thier computer, heck... I think were all able...
I find it unusual for you (seth) to want to limit something... you usually seem to
enjoy(much like myself) the stupid ass messages
and all the funny replies to them...
