As a new person to the list, I would like to add my comments. Obviously people are volunteering their time to help other people by transcribing the obituaries. I am on the Centre County list and I occasionally get obituaries from Blair County. The difference is that many obituaries are listed in one email. Doing this might reduce the emails and it is my understanding that when they are archived that they could be searched based on any words that are contained in the body of the email. A bigger problem for me is the volumn of emails that are coming through that are personal responses to the obit controversy. On the Centre County list if you "reply", the email goes to the individual rather than the whole list. This might be a helpful change. Personally, I can handle the obituaries, but I find myself losing track of things that might be of interest due to the large volumn of mail that is personal in nature. As a newcomer who has received a lot of help from the list I am hesitant to make suggestions, but I think that if someone could find out how to make a reply go to the individual who sent the email rather than to the whole group that it would improve the effectiveness of the list and reduce any hard feelings that come from having a critical email posted to everyone by mistake.
