David, I half agree with you... If a person is not prepared to register to the list with his company email address, it just tells me that probably 99% of the time he will not pass the requirements sometimes found at the bottom of emails... "The view of the sender does not necessary reflect the views of this company" What I do not agree with is this... A large bank in Hong Kong have a much larger training budget, than the smaller .com, also when the person from the smaller company asks a question, it gives people on the list an idea, no1. where there are more companies to go and work for when NYSE gets rid of 1500 MIPS to go to AIX. Also it gives the trainers/sw salesmen on the list a better chance to target those companies in which there are a lack of knowledge.
