Apologies to you Marty ___?___, as you probably are a newbie, but Geez, I really get tired of asking folks to follow the CR rules, simple as they are!
In any case, I have sent two three similar messages just this week so I wonder if anyone reads these blankety blank mail?
Anyway, here we go again:
CR list members are required, in order to remain in good standing as a CR list member, to sign off each CR message with first and last name, home town, state and country. If you didn't catch that rule, then maybe you missed some others that you need to bone up on?
Upon joining the CR e-list, the rules were sent to you in the Welcome message, and are here for your review:
