Well, I didn't mean this to be a challenge, just a question. I mean, if
that question is a challenge, think about what administrating the list is
-- you'd have to answer this question quite a few times every day (to
yourself, but nonetheless...)

I like it the way it is.

I think trying to impose a change against the collective will of the list
members (which is what basically forms the list) would destroy the list as
it is.

I don't have any problem with this. If people follow you, that's what it is
then. But I doubt that persuasion is enough... most seem to like it the way
it is, or else it would be different, so a sudden change would require some
kind of brute force. (Which is not to say it can't or won't change over
time.)
