Good Evening All, While I'm all for an interesting and informative debate, I'm starting to feel that the current thread about List Admin responsibilities has taken a someone uncomfortable, and at times personal, turn. My personal feeling is, it would be better if we could all "take a pause for the cause", and agree to end this thread, before it creates uncivil discourse in our little community? My father, a man who I generally had nothing in common with in his life, had one saying which we both had to agree on."It'd be a funny world if we all liked the same thing." Maybe we could all agree that each List Admin should be thanked for giving their time and efforts to their lists, to the best of their abilities, for the time they are able to devote to this wonderful project.
