I think you made the point perfectly Ron. You could have made that filter on
the first day the pci list opened however many years ago by filtering on the
to: line. You didn't need the five characters added, and that's what has
frustrated those of us who regularly filter messages. It's not that most of
us care one way or the other about five extra subject line characters,
though one might argue that it will further dilute the usefulness of subject
lines. We just see it as unnecessary, because all the tools to filter and
sort were already there, long before [PCI] was added to the subject. If you
know how to filter, then [PCI] has no usefulness, whatsoever, in the subject
line.

Does anyone else feel like the PCI list has been zapped into the land of
Liliputia where we endlessly argue which end of the egg to open?
