Jason (right?),
I'm a little sensitive to the criticism you're making because I write a lot
of messages in this list and being still new I'm not completely sure what's
"on-topic."
I have really thought your messages have been very helpful and reflect a lot
of good experience. I understand the problem with the specific messages you
referred to. While I'm mainly interested in how to take care of my Leopard
gecko, with which I'm sure you could help me a lot, I don't see why I
shouldn't tolerate messages about other subjects on-topic (geckos) and learn
about anything I'm interested in, even if sometimes I have to wade through
them.
I would like to hear off-list or on-list what you would like to be reading,
and I look forward to more of your posts.
Steve
