Hi, Its worth remembering how useful an archive of a list like PARKINSN is, both for people on the list and those who aren't. The world would be a lot poorer if this list wasn't archived. > As has been pointed out, >everything anyone posted to PARKINSN has been accesible via Simon >Coles' PARKINSN archive web page. Realistically, if you post anything to a public mailing list like PARKINSN, it does become "Public", and may be stored in a variety of places. The Internet is a brave new world, and one could get all philosophical about "privacy". This is not the place to discuss this in detail but if anyone's really interested please email me and I will send you a book list! Having said that, sometimes people don't want some particular message in the archive. I will remove specific items from the archive - you don't have to supply a reason, just let me know which messages. I emphasise *specific* messages, as removing messages is a manual process and I'll get swamped if people aren't sparing.
