Personally, I don't open anything that isn't identified. Also many researchers receive upwards of 500 posts per day and do not have time to open those that don't identify in the subject line that it may be something they can help someone with. I really like helping newbies - but I don't have time to sort through messages that just say "Roll Call" or nothing to find those I might be able to help. Karen
