Hi, Charlie...It never even crossed my mind that this was an attack-honest. :) Although the 'gift horse with decayed teeth' caught my attention for a moment. (Just kidding.) I have forwarded your suggestion to the 'listserve guru' and will let you all know if it's possible. It would be worth a try. Most of the other suggestions were good, too. I especially liked the idea of mentoring new members re a list FAQ and specific software programs. Another 'mentoring' job would be respond to and assist those folks who mistakenly think I'm some kind of expert about pd. I have fowarded some of these messages to specific listmembers but it would be helpful to have a team who could try to direct these folks to pd resources. Perhaps Bob Fink and others could assist those members who send attachments to the list. Janet Paterson already does an excellent job of responding to listserver questions and hopefully will continue to do so. And Don, would you please continue being our role model for how to live with pd....I don't know how many times I have thought "what would Don do in this situation'. The answer is always 'just go ahead and find a way to do it'. Thank you all for your kind words.
