As i see it, things for me havent really changed at all. I still see the same meessages pop up on my screen, with the same proportion of seriouis and non-serious. Perhaps there is a little less feeling of restriction as to what I can write. Just I have to remember 2 addresses now, but my computer does that for me anyway. A few pwople have taken on a lot more work. And the big winnners are the original PIEN list members, who now no longer have to contend with the la rge number of (in their opinion) irrelevant humorous comments. Because the disruptive elements are now removed from there, and have a delightful new playground.. To me, that saeems like a win-win situation. I love it! Hilary
