Sorry to reply so late to this (I was climbing Jiri san):

I would disagree with the complaint about a "flood" of mail. Filtering is
one method (I use it liberally) of managing all my mail, but to complain
(as some have) about information is like going to the library and
complaining about there being too many books around to find *exactly* what
you are looking for.

In any case, all of the non-US/Canada located subscribers pay by the minute
for our internet access, so as interested readers, we are better off to
just download in the relatively small space of time the posts from Mr
Tedesco, than to go clicking around the web and reading while online.

Cheers,
Todd
