Mastaler" on Sat, 23 Feb 2002 | The problem with closing the list is that it makes things very | inconvenient for those who just want to post to ding, but don't want | to subscribe. Too bad. That whole "please reply to me as I'm not on the list" thing is more obnoxious than I could ever be. If they're too lazy to subscribe to the list then that's just too damned bad. Besides, they should be using gnu.emacs.gnus for that. -- Rat \ Caution: Happy Fun Ball may suddenly Minion of Nathan - Nathan says Hi! \ accelerate to dangerous speeds.
