I think it is arrogant to disturb lots of people that have done nothing to deserve it. People should be let to choose them self what they wanna do with their lives. If they wish to disengage some conversation, let them. Don't send them spam. The ones who wish to participate will stay on the list and the ones seeking for an answer can browse the archives. > > Please respect other people. > +1 to both Matti and Alan. If he decides to change this and does, let me know. I'll consider removing the blacklist. There is no need making no telling how many people change their settings just because one person refuses too. To the point about folks unsubscribing, if they do unsubscribe from the list, it may be because they got what they want and do NOT want any more messages. I don't recall EVER sending a email to someone offlist unless I was asked to or had to send some large attachement that the other person wanted and I didn't want to send to the list. If I unsubscribed from this list, I would expect emails regarding this list to stop. At least I know now why folks told me what they did when I first joined. I'm just glad I wasn't so thick headed to not listen. I adjusted my settings and been here ever since. < insert thumbs up here > Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
