During my absence ...

Some new terminology has been coined.
What's with this MARK language?
I need some context.

Mark Roberts started collecting interesting snippets from PDML messages. 
Often items that may have made sense originally but sound a bit off when pulled 
out of context. Then he started publishing his collection on his web site at 
the end of each year. Then he included the collection as part of the PDML 
Annual Photobook.

When list members spot what they think is a candidate for inclusion inThe List, 
and recognizing that Mark may not read every message, they submit their 
nomination by annotating a quote of the relevant passage with MARK. Which may 
or may not trigger a filter Mark may or may not have set on his email reader.

Yeah but he gets a tad snippy if you MARK one that is too obviously 
something he would quote , something that is so obviously a

gem.  So then MARKing becomes a more subtle art.

That's what our cats always said, but I failed to appreciate the nuances.

 MARK!



Speaking of which, would it not be more efficient to 'MARK' the subject
line rather than burying 'MARK' within the body of a message that Mark
may or may not read?

BTW, an explanation of MARK (not Mark) can be found in the PDML FAQ:
