[Vision2020] Proposal: Change Listserv Name

[Darrell Keim]

Sue:
I'm not expecting a well, self-regulated medium.  If I was after that I'd
propose moderators.

My wife would die of laughter if she heard someone thought I like
everything neat and tidy.  That's not it.

I certainly don't want Tom to leave.  I really enjoy some of his posts.

All I want is for Tom to do what most everyone else does:  Limit his posts
to an average of three a day and stay mostly on track with what V2020 is
supposed to be about.

Honestly, it feels like he has hijacked v2020 for his own personal blog or
Facebook page.  If he wants to post numerous times daily about cats, the
Sat. market, etc. on a Facebook page more power to him.  People that like
it can sign up.  This resource is supposed to have a higher purpose.  Have
a look at our mission (http://vision2020.moscow.com/mission.asp).  Are
Tom's numerous posts helping us achieve it?
