Congratulations Tony, As it is Saturday, I can report that I haven't laughed so much for a long while.
Bob Frost ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Naturally I have received a complaint about my summary blockage of the Hard Disk Speed thread. I concede it may have been a misjudgement on my part that summarily deprived a large number of readers of invaluable information. I therefore propose a few revisions to the list charter. (1)On Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, list discussion will be strictly limited to topics intimately related to filmscanners, in plain text, with neatly clipped quotes. (2)Wednesday will be Hard Disk Day. All other subjects will be disallowed, although messages discussing SCSI vs. IDE will be permitted up to a limit of 2,000 repetitions per day. This is also gratuitous ill temper day. (3)Friday will be Vuescan day. Just so Ed doesn't get bored over the weekend, and can squeeze in a whole 3 betas before Monday. (4)Saturday will be HTML, unclipped comments, MS Winmail, giant sig, 'I'm sorry I am out of the office until Monday' autoresponders, Kanji, 'GET ME OFF THIS LIST!' and virus attachment day. Any subject at all, nobody will read them. An ideal time to revive the popular 'life of CD' speculations too. (5)Sunday will be Self Indulgence day, featuring religious/political/ethical debate incl. Mac vs. PC, Nikon vs Canon, NASDAQ tips, Bill Gates is/isn't dangerous, and 'my wife's divorced me because I'm always on the computer' day. Or anything else. It won't matter because generally I'll have the server in bits, fitting a new hard drive. Don't ask what sort, it's not Wednesday. I trust this new, enlightened structure meets the requirements of all list participants.
