Hi Charles! Many thanks for posting the rules. I am sure I must have read them in the way back when I first joined.
Having not read these rules in many years, I made the wrong assumption that topics posted here must be cave(r)-related. Like you, I take advantage of the warning David provides to "delete now" if I am not interested. Again, thank you for re-posting the link to the 4 simple rules to follow while a member of this listserv. And, many thanks for remaining our thoughtful moderator. I very much appreciate the time you put into making this listserv function.
