It is sort of a curious situation...comp.sys.m6809 seems to be languishing
while the mailing list is active.  I wonder whether past a certain point
comp.sys.m6809 will be marked for destruction because its traffic is siphoned
off into the mailing list, and what the relative burden on the net is of
the mailing list versus the same traffic were it sent on comp.sys.m6809?
