I'm with Don on this one. I too wade through 100s of emails a day. Pauli ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Stanwyck" Subject: Re: [COGEN] Volunteers on the list? In the past the list was used for conversations between CCs but there were some CCs who objected to being forced to wade through all the non-CoGenWeb specific postings. That made for a very dry, limited use list, used solely for CoGenWeb business. As one who has to process literally hundreds of emails a day (I get over 500 a day on my job) I'm a big fan of having a business list and, if people want it, a separate list for chatting. While I appreciate my fellow CoGenWeb volunteers and the great job you all do, I'm not one who has much time on my hands to read through things like family recipes. But I have no objection to an optional list that had that kind of content :-) --don stanwyck
