OY, Bob! Count me OUT on THIS one! I don't like the idea of actual "List police" or "List monitors" at all. In fact, if i found myself on a heavily "policed" list of ANY kind, I'd do the fasted about face in history, and never logon to that list again! Errrr.... and if THIS list gets policed in such a manner, well, as much as I'd miss it (and it's the only list I belong to), I'd say "Adios" to ya all, and look for some other Cyber-PD-group to join.
