You mean folks are required to read and understand BEFORE they post? If so, I'd like to know how ;-) You could temporarily moderate your subscribers' postings pending some future delivery and time differences; they give it another couple of hours for it to sink in, as well as those folks who read and post sequentially, followed up by those who must let no good deed go unpunished by responding to someone else on-list who did not read things in the same order that they did. /Pete
