And on and on it goes.



Briefly,

I have no intention of becoming the net-police and have no hope of
instilling order at this late date. However, after my latest
observation/query on listserv and archives response mechanisms. in addition
to the four out of office responses plus the archive list message
confirmation I was fascinated to receive:

I hate to make such a suggestion, but maybe enews@gcn.net.tw should be
unsubscribed since it is obviously not doing them or the list any good to
be receiving ARCHIVES mail, I was about to suggest sending them a
notification of this until I considered the absurdity and futility of doing
so.

What next?
