These are useful and useable answers. The bottom line for me however was that 
some majority of the users of those lists will not do so, or at least simply 
reply to the person, not the list. Extrapolating that means I wouldn't get to 
see 'answers' to some potentially interesting questions and hence reading the 
material is too frustrating. Probably no greater example of what I mean is, 
the bulk of the SxS comes from material culled from replies to this and other 
mailers.
