Re: How the value of this listserve has decreased



Folks -

Hmmmm...taking Lisa's advice seems to have done the trick.

Remembering the debate at the time at which the current practice was
established, it seems to me that this option ("reply all") was recommended
for those who wished to share commentary and ideas.

If the content of the listserve has in some way or other diminished, is it
due to the structure of reply functions online or the failure of us all to
hit "reply all"?

It would seem that if the latter had consistently been done, the case would
have been made for returning to the previous practice.

I'd say just my .02's worth....but we are talking Canadian currency (ok,
ok....it's .013 U.S. or thereabouts....)...

Cheers!

Mark
