I agree with Harry that this list has degraded significantly in recent
weeks, and that the occasional useful post (related to practical issues
surrounding US conversion to SI) is being buried by other noise. I've set
message rules on my e-mail program to delete posts from certain individuals
with a recent history of numerous low quality posts, but ideally the list
itself would be cleaned of those people.
Webmaster, why not limit this list to paying current members of USMA? I
thought that was the point of this list.

Subject: [USMA:43568] A modest proposal
May I suggest that we do something to pigeonhole or earmark UK metric
discussion? Some of it is relevant to the US, of course, but 90% is not.
Much of it is discussions among three or four people. I want to read
stuff about US progress. The number of postings here is getting to the
point where I may unsubscribe for a few months to see if anything has
changed. Webmaster, any suggestions?
