Excellent point, Doug, although sometimes I think running a list I
didn't care about might be easier. Since my only pay is the
satisfaction of seeing it work well, there is a lot of emotion tied
up in it. There wouldn't be the emotional involvement in a list that
I was running for someone else. But...when I think of having to read
all those messages to check for flames, I don't want to do it. I
wouldn't mind being technical help for new list owners though.
