Just my two cent's worth hoping not to beat a dead horse of offend anyone: Some of us have VERY slow Internet connections and it may take 20-30 seconds to download each message. If it is just a "Thank You" or a "Your Welcome" it seems to me that this type of message should go directly to the person rather than back to the list. This would help me a great deal. When you belong to multiple lists and get sometimes 50-70 or more messages a day, this can save a LOT of time. I can't tell you how valuable this and other lists are and no one should be discouraged from posting any information that could possibly be of help to someone else. Dick Hughes Hawthorne, FL
