>I've been observing the list for awhile an I've >tried to distill the essence of what >appear to be the rules of protocol for this list. What you've posted is destined to be a classic. An interesting MN phenomona: Cabin Fever. I'd love to see a study done charting the "temperature" of an email list vs time of the year. IMHO, taking a bit from Ward Cunningham's wiki... It's Ward's wiki. As long has he finds it useful, he'll keep dedicating resources to it. I'd guess that Realtime and the other folks who make this list happen probably have the same attitude. As long as they get some sort of personal enlightment from this list, they'll keep it going. Nuff of that. Oh, yeah, and you forgot to put an OT in your subject line. May a fish fall into your ear. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Sports - Coverage of the 2002 Olympic Games http://sports.yahoo.com
