Oh well! As you say. I am on lotsa lists and if you press Reply on some of
them, they go to the sender only, and some go to the list only. If you press
Reply All, they go to both. I cannot keep track of which are which, and do
not know which. I used to reply and take what I get, but then stuff intended
for the list go only to the original sender, and then I get another e-mail
of the same thing from the list and must answer to both. Fooey. So now I
just reply to the list most times. There is no good solution.

Maybe. Hard to know. Once in a while there is interest in this stuff.
A very few are interested in Lippmann color photography. A very few are
interested in making the little dots for half-tone photography (I have done
it with ruled glass crossline screens generously donated to me by Max Levy &
CO of Philadelphia, the very company that made screens for F.E.Ives way back
when.

I guess so.

Well, I did not release personal information really; all of it is documented
here or there. I do not know if you propose to send me personal information
that you do not want seen by the list, but if that is the case, how do you
know I am trustworthy to keep it secret? And even then, you would have to
consider sending it to me encrypted.
