Keith, For the record, I did ask that members reply to me off list. I know that some people sometimes hit the reply button too quickly and that causes a problem. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I recently took the CBEST here in CA so in the interest of preparing any of you for a high stakes test, here we go. Please do NOT send out a reply to this message. - - - - - - - - - - - We occasionally see kind members of our Mosaic list offer to provide a file. It sounds like a "goldmine" for your classroom. What should you do? Select the appropriate response from the choices below: A. Hit reply and send a message to the entire Mosaic list thus asking over 1000 people to send you the materials. B. Hit reply but REPLACE the list address with the address of the actual person. C. Call the White House and declare a national holiday. D. Apply the Pythagorean theory to solve the problem. - - - - - - - - - - - - - And the correct answer is......."B". Please don't send mail to the entire list when requesting something from ONE person. For help see: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg02619.html> Most of you don't call EVERY parent in your school when ONE student answers a question correctly. So please don't post to the ENTIRE list when there's just ONE person that you need to contact. Likewise if you are a person that offers help or materials on list, you can help us by specifying that list members contact you "off list" and then provide your email address in the message.
