Could we get off this sorting debate? There are others asking questions and I would like to read responses to their questions, too. Lynn B.

Lynn, I sent this to the list 3 hours ago. Did you miss it? "That's why subject lines are so important, so that list subscribers can quickly delete messages without reading them if they aren't interested in the topic being discussed. So long as everyone remains cordial and at least the barest minimum of new material is being presented, the discussion can continue. However, if the discussion devolves into nothing more than a rehash of what has been already said, and people who have already expressed their position simply keep posting it and re-posting it, I'll put an end to it. Anyone who has a problem with the discussion should email me directly, rather than expressing their displeasure on the list itself."

I find the discussion about sorting fine and interesting. And the participants have mostly kept to the point during the discussion. That is seldom on the internet. But the remarks here - that it is boring, is a kind of spam. If I find a discussion boring I don't have to tell "all the world" that I find it boring - I just delete the boring mails.

Thats a little harsh isnt it? Surely if people feel the need to discuss then that is exactly what the discussion list is for? Can I suggest that you change your mail filters to automatically delete the mails that you find "boring" and likewise others could filter out your messages?
