According to the Village Pragmatist, this is a defeat. We have to stick together at all cost.

I trust Doug to stay out of trouble while vacationing on his own. He has practice.

And we do have to stick together at all costs, up to and including taking separate vacations now and again.

IMO auto-routing one's e-mail to Archive is more like a separation or time-out than a divorce (aka "unsubscribe"). I'm not sure if he plans to see other Mail lists during his vacation, he might be choosing mail-list celibacy for the moment.

I took a separate vacation this summer/fall (trip to Europe as well as to death's gate to deliver my father) and I suspect most of you barely noticed (well, maybe your mailbox wasn't quite as full for a bit there).

Besides, I've already promised Doug I would CC: him directly with any of my more philosophical musings so he won't feel left out ;^)

*Subject:* [FRIAM] Separate Vacations This Summer

Dear FRIAMers (even those of you who are a bit of an asshole now & then)

I've come to the conclusion that it is best if we take separate vacations this summer. Accordingly, I have adjusted my incoming stream of email to skillfully detect any missives that originate from the FRIAM list, and have arranged things so that they proceed directly on to the archives without dallying around in my inbox.

Have a great summer V, and we'll pick things up again on the flip side. Or not!
