I suspect you work in a very different environment than I do. Fortunately, I work for more level-headed people who expect me to understand their business and provide the business tools needed, while protecting business assets from the users' whims. This place was self-administered when I got here and was a raging mess. I was brought in to bring order to their chaos. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
