"IMPORTANT - Occasionally "off topic" messages and/or "spam" are posted on the Illinois Message Board which is gatewayed to this list. When this happens, Please just hit your delete key. Thank you for your cooperation." The above message is a tag line which appears on every 4th and 7th message sent through the ILROOTS-L list. It is self explanatory. It is not necessary to respond to the list when this sort of thing occurs, and to RESEND the offending message back to the list with a complaint about it is certainly NOT helpful. It just compounds the problem.
