Jon,

Honestly I haven't come to any conclusions.  I was just aggravated and fired
of the first thoughts I had on the subject.  I believe this list serve is a
great service to many people.  The example you gave demonstrates one of the
benefits of joining the GGA.  Informing people of this benefit is a good way
to get new members.  Posting offending letters is not.  I understand that
the statements made were his own and not the policy of the GGA but it still
managed to hit a nerve with me and others.  In the future I will try to
ignore such posts and think of the benefits offered by this organization.
