Since you haven't been here long let me tell you this. Don't waste your
time trying to change what can't be changed. The "delete" button gets a
real work out on my mouse,

-Blaine, have you tried the digest version? It loads 20-30 posts into 1
email and sends it out a few times a day. I found that this was the
only way I could handle the volume. Now, I just scan the subject lines
at the beginning for what interests me if I'm in a hurry, then scan down
to those posts (the reason why we holler to make sure that your subject
line is current)

ps I subscribe to the list more for the funny posts and humorous
exeriences than for the technical side. I work the techno stuff
everyday at work...
