i read it by email, but have to respond via usenet these days due to
the broken mail server at cse.psu.edu.

i don't see how they could have different spirits when they they've
always been (more-or-less) the same thing.

whether they *should* be different is another question.  personally i
don't read usenet any more, so if they were split, the mailing list is
the one i'd continue to read (but i'd be unable to post to it, which
would be annoying).
