I suggest that all humorous messages contain the word "humor" in the subject field. Then, if you don't want to get humor mail, you can set up a filter to delete all messages containing "humor" in the subject field and you'll never know what you missed.

Personally I found it humorous, yet I can understand where others would be upset by it. May I suggest a compromise?? How about we designate Fridays as an open day where humor is not only allowed but encouraged. For who amongst us does not need a laugh to end the week? Then we leave Monday through Thursday as serious only and that way those that do not wish to see humor are prepared to watch the subject line on Fridays and delete that which they do not which to read. Seem reasonable???

TREG is a big group of people and occasionally we get a chance to talk around the water cooler. If you just want information without personality, I would suggest you spend more time with books and less time on the Internet. Everyone needs to waste a little bandwidth now and again.
