I'm also on other lists where this system is used. Mainly to set an ID
so that certain mail never reaches your mailbox. If we limited it to
just ten codes it would be perfectly feasible. The slower members of
the list could print it off and stick it by their monitor. *Most* TB
users or at least the ones on this list seem pretty bright. I'm sure
that remembering a few codes isn't beyond them.

Even if this system ever was implemented we would still need to have
proper meaningful subjects.

 As a computer, I find your faith in technology amusing.
