Re: New Scirocco List Rule Suggestions

[autofuse@richmond.infi.net]

Ah gots ta chime in ta dis one-

Henry, while I will agree that all too often there are listgreenbacks who
ask questions we've all seen a thousand times, guys who are either dyslexic
or amazingly poor at speeling and grammar, people who send out 20 replys
like, "Yeah, me too!", guys who quote everything but wheres their reply?,
people that want to discuss driving music, Hondas, and cops, guys that 
tell you something they really are speculating, guys and gals who've only
been on the road for a year or two, and even those lack the initiative to 
'do a little research before querying to the list'.

BUT, I dont mind deleting hundreds of unread messages, I dont mind
reading about space shuttles, dont mind every once in a while reading
Jonas' (?) manipulation/destruction of english, dont mind seeing someone 
post a test, and certainly dont mind replying to this 'non-rocco' content.
If you (mail) have the ability, filter your mail, or deal with it.

When Herr Van  Sprewenburg determines an 'etiquette', I'll assume
there will be one. Until then, aint nobody able to say what happens
where. Besides, everything you dont like will just continue to happen
as it has for the last few years. 

Oh, and where you been?
