To switch to a digest, as presented by the keeper of the list, would simply mean that you would get your mailing once a day instead of several times a day. Also, the spontaneity of the responses would be lost. A digest would only be advantageous if it were edited to remove some of the noise. I won't get into that since we all know what a bag of worms that is. Regards, Fred PS - Once you open a #6 can of worms they can only be repackaged in a #10 can. :-) --- Frederick R.
