S> Why these repetitve instructions?!? I do not speak for the list owners of this list, but I think I understand where they're coming from. As a list owner, there is one thing I never, ever, do -- and that is question the operating methods of a list owner. I imagine the administrators feel that public reminders are worthwhile. The problem with lists is that when people see something done wrong and no correction is issued on the list, the lesson learned is that the inappropriate behavior is correct and accepted. These reminder messages follow a format, so it's a trivial exercise in filter building to create a filter that eliminates them before they can bother you. I haven't done this because TBUDL is a low-volume, on-topic list and because it's easy to hit the DEL key a little faster than usual once or twice a day when one of these reminders shows up. -- Bill Blinn Technology Editor ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - 9/30/2003 at 8:42 PM Technology Editor, Newsradio 610 WTVN, Columbus, Ohio Using The Bat! v2.00.6 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Random thought: Learning French is trivial: The word for horse is "cheval" and everything else follows in the same way.
