I rather sarcastically pointed out that it was unlikely that anybody read his announcement since most people were not willing to wade through six screens of a "to" line to get to the content. I also told him that he had just committed a rather large net no-no. The part that I found funny was that at the end of the six screens of recipients, including the two lists I run and eight or so others that I subscribe to, he asks us to forward the posting to other lists. --Natalie ([log in to unmask])
