Yep, right on schedule (or perhaps slightly late). It's ADITL time!
Oben,
There's something about this list that goes wacko just about the time of an
ADITL or TOPE.

I logged in this morning to download... 237 messages from the list.
How many were even remotely relevant? Maybe 20 to 30. How many were marked
Off Topic? Hardly any. I think it pays to be courteous to the other list
members. Seriously consider... is my mailing going to be of general
interest? If not mark it as such with OT.
The other irritating thing is people who reply with one word answers and
include the entire previous mailing without selecting what they are
replying to.
Come on guys... everyone can do better than the past 24 hours.
This bunch of 237 included:
1. Travel to Cuba and Libya
2. Cats licking leather
3. Fish
4. Shipping with UPS versus FedEx
5. Cars
6. A huge thread: : [OM] Odd question, nothing to do with
Olympus... NOT marked "OT"
My filter normally separates the OT stuff for later viewing or trashing.
This huge mailing of 237 got through with more crap than I ever imagined
possible.
