I feel the need to add a clarifying remark my statement that "when a service is free then YOU are the product." This discussion list, hosted by Wayne Cripps and his servers, is in fact a freely available service that does not, to my knowledge, mine personal information from its users. It's been a while since we all thanked Wayne publicly for providing this forum, and for taking steps to protect its users. The lute-list is a much appreciated remnant of old-school egalitarianism. Thanks, Wayne.
