Re: Jane & Allan - PLEASE START ANOTHER LIST FOR...
Ok, here I go. I have basically stopped forwarding GN posts to the list. Today is the first time I posted since Jan. 30 and I included an OT in the subject header which I noticed our moderator or someone else removed. Just for the record, Jane, the moderator does not touch to subject of messages he posts unless he is asked to forward at which time he may modify the subject to make who sent it clearer. I hope you find this helpful
Re: Jane & Allan - PLEASE START ANOTHER LIST FOR...
I'll be happy to forward relevant posts to you Martha if you are volunteering. Let me know Martha. Thanks for the idea.

RE: Jane & Allan - PLEASE START ANOTHER LIST FOR...
Dear Jane, I,too, think that You should start Your own list for people that have interest in such (eco-political)topics. As far as I know this is the ONLY list that deals with BD. Some people do not mind Your posting but some really do. And as one of those that find Your posting as maybe irrelevant to BD, or disturbing, irritated even inappropriate may ask You: - don't You think there are other ways to gather support for Your concerns than to hijack email addresses of BD list? - if someone refuses and complains again and again and You keep sending all those mails - is it violence from Your side or not? I was born in Serbia so I know everything about DU ammunition that still rottens bones of children overthere or town of 100 000 people that was adviced not to have children due to soil and water pollution after NATO bombs destroyed one of the largest petrochemical plant in ex-Yugoslavia. In that respect I appreciate very much posting from Steve Diver on phytoremediation few days ago - that will bring much needed info to people in Serbia. Being 100% lurker I have to say that effect of BD now! on me is not visible in my posting - Your postings also inspired and helped first BD books to be published in Serbian! Thanks to You all Zoran
Re: Jane & Allan - PLEASE START ANOTHER LIST FOR...
It wouldn't be hard at all for someone (Jane or Allan) to create a distribution list and only send those OT messages to people who actually request to be on the distribution list. It would remove it from BDNOW, and no one would have to actually start a new group with all the headaches that entails.
Re: Jane & Allan - PLEASE START ANOTHER LIST FOR...
Ok, here I go. I have basically stopped forwarding GN posts to the list. Today is the first time I posted since Jan. 30 and I included an OT in the subject header which I noticed our moderator or someone else removed. Apparently they thought there might be a connection between bd & radiation. The only post forwarded from GN today was about contamination in runoff water in NM. How is it that such an important piece of environmental news is not connected to biodynamics? Would it be more helpful if suggested that perhaps we, as bd practitioners, gardeners & farmers could address for instance: plutonium levels in runoff in NM? How could we address their problems 'over there' which of course is my problem as well? Do you only want to hear about farmers' anecdotal experience and scientific studies? Today's post was 5 short paragraphs. How would you remediate this runoff with bd solutions, Glen, doug?

Jane & Allan - PLEASE START ANOTHER LIST FOR...
PLEASE start another list for BD + world events. Then invite all those on the current list to subscribe if they wish. I continually read on this list laments that BD is not gaining ground. If this list is the main internet email list covering BD, I can easily see why. What I see here is that if people do innocently subscribe wanting BD info, the volume and size of emails not directly relating to BD surpasses those that are info about BD. It is really quite discourging to open ones email box after several weeks away and find it full and not accepting further emails because of the volume and size of emails that came from BD Now. Jane, I couldn't agree more that there is a relationship between BD, sprituality and the greater world. I think it would be a fine service for you to start a list to cover such. This would also allow you to be free of crap thrown your way from some here on this list. How about it Jane and Allan - would you consider starting a second list? Regards, Doug From: Gil Robertson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: to Jane Sherry Date: Tue, 28 Jan 2003 11:27:14 +1030 Thank you Jane, Last time I dared to mention that I did not understand why, in the face if Allan's stand on short emails, he allowed your seemingly endless, non original postings, he threatened to unsub me. So this time he may do just that. I do not understand why you think that an interest in BD necessarily means we are not capable of accessing our own information. I find that to be an unreasonable generalisation. I for one will enjoy the reduction of non theme traffic.
