<DIV>It amazes me that Frank has so much time to find all those articles which
he sends. Some of them I would never have seen as their sources are not
available or sometimes not even known to me, so I think it's a good thing he
does. On the other hand it is a voluminous amount of mail to sort through. It's
a very simple fix for those who find it too much. Read the subject line and
if you're not interested, hit the little delete button. </DIV>

it's that I have to<BR>have time for an actual life apart from doing
email.<BR><BR>Of course, if an article is from a site that requires<BR>a paid
subscription, it makes sense to post the entire<BR>article. But it's a lot
easier if something is online<BR>to read it on the original site, since email
format<BR>(line breaks are all over the place) makes it<BR>difficult to read
long posts. <BR><BR>It's also nice for discussion to happen
alongside<BR>cut-and-paste postings. There are thousands of email<BR>forums
where all people do is post articles, and<BR>there's no actual social contact
going on, no real<BR>thinking and discussion. It's not as bad when
the<BR>articles are scientific rather than political, but it<BR>still makes
for a much less interesting time.<BR><BR>Michael<BR></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
