It would really help if people would show basic competence with correspondence: - Use capitalization - Hit enter sometimes - Write in paragraphs with sentences, or in list form, but not both at the same time - Click reply to continue discussion, don't copy text into a new email - Don't spam the list with contentless "me too"s
I know a lot of y'all are getting on in years, but that doesn't excuse oblivious discourtesy. The internet is your chance to communicate without shouting into one other's ear horns -- seize it!
no one should feel compelled to know anything about the server arrangement

Yes, it seems that the inverse is true: everyone seems to think that Dale hosts the list (he's the moderator) and are publicly obsequious towards him.
It's actually Alex Wetmore here in Seattle that hosts the list, though he never reads it as we're weirdos.
