We have 2 moderators for this list and they do their job very well. If you have no interest in reading duplicate messages about a thread on list just use your delete key, everyone else does. As for what people have time to do, that is none of your business. Also, if you are going to go on list with a message, I would suggest you use a spell check, your spelling is atrocious. Most of us understand the subject line, "Keep this list clean" to mean that there was offensive language in one of the messages. The people on this list never use dirty language in their messages, we are too sophisticated for that. Besides, if such words were to cross our list the moderators would have kicked the offending person off list! If you are going to communicate with a list, learn the vernacular of the group you are communicating with! We have people on this list from all over the world and don't need anyone hiding behind a national flag and calling the rest of us offensive! ----- Original Message ----- From: Amando Tortolero To: jfw Sent: Tuesday, October 31, 2006 7:29 AM Subject: keep this list clean dear list members, since a few weeks i am member of this list and i try to read every mail in it. that is very difficult, because there are a lot of things in it, which donot belong here. member a has a question and several members give the same answer. that cannot be changed, but some days later a member, who has answered already several times, gives an answer that has already been givven several times. that is unnessecasy. some members seems to have a lot of time and answer every mail they get. also when they donot know the answer or they give a wrong answer. over the weekend one member has apologied 3 times for a wrong answer. i would like to ask you to keep this list clean and anly keep it for questions about jaws and correct answers for them. there are several chat-sites about jaws where you can write al the other things you want to get rid of. if you want to react to this mail, that does not fit in this list, so sent me an email personally: tortolero@xxxxxxxxx thank you very much for your cooperation. amando tortolero
