 >Not to mention intransigent. Okay. Some minds are impossible to change, and some folks are difficult to educate.  It happens. Curt recently took Kaleb to task for not heeding advice. I suspect all of us are a bit set in our ways. Some more than others. This still remains a diverse and knowledgeable group.   Rick___

>One way is mercedes content only.

Mercedes only. No talk of food, barbeque, quahog festivals, gardens, firearms, 
mowers, tractors, light bulbs, dishwashers, washing machines, furniture, garage 
building and outfitting, landscaping, well pumps, sump pumps, flooding, unusual 
weather patterns, photography and related equipment, computers and operating 
systems, lawn irrigation, chainsaws, tree removal, lanterns, stoves, camp 
stoves, solar lighting, led lighting, snow machines, watches, nuclear power, 
windmills, mechanical repairs on any vehicle that isn't a Mercedes, and no 
advise on any vehicle other than Mercedes-Benz. 

This is just a fraction of the off topic threads I have learned and gleaned 
information and knowledge about various nonpolitical things necessary and 
relevant to my life. 

There is a tremendous wealth of knowledge in the minds of the men (and 
occasionally women) that populate this list. We really are a diverse and 
intelligent lot. 

Dwight, do you REALLY want to kill this list?

[MBZ] OT - This Thread is Dead, Jim

2020-05-27 Thread Meade Dillon via Mercedes
So I was thinking about the admin tools, and how hard it is to stop replies
to a thread that is deemed to be dead by list mom or list dad.

Is there a way to change the subject line to indicate "DEAD"?  That may
provide a more visible flag to people who get into the conversation late,
and don't see the closure because they are reading the emails in chrono
order from oldest to youngest.

Alternatively, flag that subject line in the list serv software such that
all replies to that subject get returned to sender with "Dead Thread" or
somesuch in the reply?

I'm sure there is some way to do this.

Maybe the penalty will be automatic enrollment into OkieTalk and send the
reply there, so the responder can carry on in the appropriate channel.
