Hi Nick,
I found you message very relevant. In addition to your coments many people
fill the list with stupid things and it seems that be always the same
people. I don't know how can somebody keep up with more than 200 messages
per day, many of which are irrelevant. Some people simply have nothing
else to do. I think you have to get really tough on people if not the list
will die.
People should write only when the have something relevant to say, please
help us to keep this list.
I suggest that people who write irrelevant things be removed from the list.
Thank you.
Luis Pena
