  Subject: [bookport] bookport listserv suggestion


  Given the last several weeks of monitoring this list, I am really very tired 
of people thinking they have to call other people's well meaning suggestions 
into question regarding their merits.  Thus, I have a question which someone 
will no doubt call into question.

  Is it possible and/or desirable for APH to create two separate lists.  One 
for people who need help and advice using the bookport, and one for suggestions 
where some people will no doubt take the list to a new low?  I would like to 
think that this would not be the case, but I must say that if I had just 
purchased the book port and wanted to ask a simple question about how something 
worked, I might not do so because of all the non-productive criticism that has 
recently pervaded this list.  I'm not sold on the idea of two lists, but it 
sure is tiring to read all the non-feature related and non-help specific 
comments that have been flying around recently.
