[gps-talkusers] Re: Quiet List

Shayna,
Today mike from Senderogroup have ask not to keep the  thread moving about
Quiet list and he ask all of us to stop it.   I and a casually reader on
this list and understand GPS a little but when you and other keep the same
topic on the subject heading I just deleit your message and when we get to
many of no nonsense mail from our group mail list then I feel like to drop
out of thelist read what Mike said below.  I am not trying to be a jerk but
please use your head.
Hey Folks,

After the first 5 messages called Quiet List, I had to resist mentioning
that there is no point in this type of message. The list goes quiet
sometimes and there is no need to have 5 messages to figure this out.

Now, when there are 21 messages called quiet list, we are really being
flagrant. There were only two messages about GPS and 21 off topic. I have no
problem with the topics being discussed but this is not a social list and
other than the half dozen people socializing, there are hundreds of others
who probably would prefer not to add to the clutter of their email boxes
with these off-topic messages.

This is the second time I have had to chime in with an admonishment and I
really hate to have to do any list moderation. I prefer for list readers to
manage themselves and that happens most of the time.

Once again, here are some basic list guidelines:
1. Write about anything having to do with GPS.
  2. If someone writes off-topic, please don't respond.
3. There is no need for short acknowledgement or thank you messages. 
Write privately off-list if you need to thank someone.
4. We can disagree as long as it is done so respectfully.

There is no need for anyone to respond to this message. Let's just consider
it a reminder of the list guidelines.

Many thanks for being an active listener and/or writer on this GPS list and
thanks for being a good list citizen.

All the best for the holidays.

Mike

Hi Debbie,

Yes, very interesting!
You just reminded me of one of the most interesting then off the beat 
tourist sights in Los Angeles.  there is a street called Alvira Street which

is aroudnn the downtown area of LA.  I think that I was only there once ... 
Why would I go touring if I live there?!

We must have gone there once with a relative who was visiting from out of 
town.  Very very interesting ... A little taste of Mexico.

Shayna

P.S.  Your other post came through twice.
