<LOL> But Ann, Raimo said nothing about the PAW being the cause of the list being too busy, did he? I noticed he pout up a link to his photography page as well.
As for sending comments privately, I know that's done, but it's also valuable to send many of the comments via the list since that's a good way for some people to learn. For example, the discussion about cropping Frank's puppy pic is a good thing to be public as others can see and participate in "the making of a final photo." I didn't see anyone complaining about the GFM threads, which had nothing to do with photography, but, rather, was about setting up a social situation amongst users. Or maybe we should discontinue whisky and car threads, or those stupid and unintelligible digital threads, or comments about scrabble, or any personal comments. Just out of curiosity, what are the threads that are important to you that you don't want to miss? For the first time in a while there is something going on that's of real interest to a certain number of list members that have no or little interest in a lot of other topics that go on here. So, some cranky minority wants to curtail the PAW, limit discussions resulting from it, reduce it to a once a week Friday event, because they can't handle it. Well, to use the sane words that are used when people have complained about other types of threads: Use the delete key. At least those that are participating in the PAW have been courteous enough to include PAW in the subject line to allow for easy filtering or deleting. That's more than can be said for many who post lots of off topic comments about other, non photographic related subjects.
