John, i am one mainly silent list member, but i have a voice and opinion too. I didn't like getting spamed, but I didn't figure it was done on pupose, and I still remember how nice all but a few were when i accidentally sent the happy 99 virus to the list. i would like the chance to decide for myself if i like thw articles, and if you feel they are interesting or helpful, I would appreciate you posting it so I dot have to try to run it down later.
