We would all need to educate ourselves a little more (It's a >little harder to use the list, if we do this, you have to use the right >key-word when starting a new thread, or the entire thread can be lost to >the whole list.) to help the really OT-bothered, there might be a way to enforce the use of a pre-defined set of keywords (like [OT], [WayOT], [Ass], [C], [Hw], ...) -- if none of the choosen keywords is present in the subject, the message gets not delivered :) people may post OT without marking it as "[OT]", but i doubt that anyone would put an OT topic under a pic keyword. so this may be a way to get to a classification of all messages. (of course, wandering threads wouldn't be affected by this... :) ge PS if anybody of our spanish speaking friends cares and didn't notice: the n with a tilde in the subject didn't get through (i guess that's normal for subjects) -- looks rather funny: "espaqol" :)
