Att: Diane Turner
 
In the past I have been guilty of not sharing comments and intend not to
repeat this error in judgment. I feel Diane made a good case in her
posting urging that all list members keep their individual responses to
a minimum. It is tantalizing to read someone's request for information and
then never see replies. If a meaningful survey were to be made, my guess
is that the percentage of members who relate to some degree to the original
author would be surprisingly high.
