I don't think it's wrong to mention off-list events or
people onlist unless they don't want it mentioned. I
usually ask my off-list friends if it's o.k. to
forward something they've said or sent to me. I think
it's nice to give people credit where it's due, and I
doubt anyone will give themselves credit. smile So go
ahead, if it's o.k. withyour scanner. smile
