Hi, Once in a while, the administrators of this list, prudently, in my opinion, allow a off topic subject that has sparked some interest, to be discussed for several days, then call time on its subject. However, for want of a better word, there are one or two pedants who object to this. Yet they do not extend their call for strict observance of rules to object to the practise of those engaged in business or a profession, to advertise this at the end of their messages. Which I, being somewhat more flexible, don't object too. They also, those having a business, naturally support and reccomend the products they sell. Again, being more flexible, I don't object to this. As a "family" of listers, can we not sometimes discuss for a short period, something relevant to our being members of thist list, e.g how others are being educated to a level which eventually motivates them to join lists such as this one! [smile] Kind regards to all, Gerry. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
