At this point in time, I would much prefer separate lists. I belong to a =
chat site, and something similar to this happened. Another place was =
created for the type of ad nasuem (SP?) posting back and forth like has =
been going on here. Many people who left have come back, the ones who =
want to beat a dead horse continually, can do so in their own place. =
They also have the room arraigned like the message board at the Moscow =
Food Co-op. When a person starts a thread, all comments stay under that =
heading. I don't mind deleting, but I have a TON to delete every =
morning, and get nervous I'll delete something of an important business =
nature.

  Tim,

  If presentations are being given in two rooms and if one never enters =
the second room, that person may miss something of value.

  In the case of Vision 2020, what topic people are discussing may be as =
important as know what events, etc. are happening in the community. =
Perhaps as a newsman you would find some value in this point of view.

  Its not a big deal to me, but I prefer a single list.  I have learned =
from both announcements and debate on Vision 2020 and suspect most list =
readers have also.

  I am not sure, but don't the local ISPs provide a bulletin board for =
community announcements?

  Thank you for your response.  I guess this is one of those =
non-critical items where disagreement is, in the end, of little =
consequence.

    Wayne,
           The separate lists idea was never about restricting anyone's =
freedom to discuss anything.
           It was about the freedom to avoid the tiresome aspects of =
what has become, in effect, a non-stop spam list.=20
           Is addressing the same "discussion" posts to a slightly =
different email address an excessive burden?

fine, even though the D in my Delete key is showing some wear.

        Visionaries,   =20
               A while back there was some discussion of having V2020 =
evolve into two separate lists--one for announcements, news etc. and the =
other for discusson on various issues.
               Anyone still think that's a good idea?=20
               It might be a welcome option to some of us who are =
presently deleting endless lines of mails usually from the same few =
post-ers concerning umm...."certain" topics that are at least to some of =
us seem to be going nowhere and are a waste of time.=20
               Thoughts?
