Paul,

Try signing on as Andy Amago. That solved Irene's problem. Your aggravation means nothing to me, your voice does. Deal with it for all our sakes. Good luck. I hope you stay.

Subject: [lit-ideas] okay, one last time


After almost 10 years of being subscribed to various incarnations of this listserve, I think I may have finally come to an insurmountable technical difficulty which is now going to render me mute -- I can hear the cheering already.

Over the past six months, I've tried two regular email addresses and been constantly unsubscribed... for the past month or so, I've been getting my mail sent to my gmail addy. The problem: their front end is terrible and the editor is abysmal. I find myself not responding to a lot of stuff that I would like to simply because I don't feel comfortable with the constraints that gmail puts on my responses (no spell check, can't readily compose in fits and starts, coming back to what I've started, their folder capabilities are basically non-existent etc.) so, I'm trying out this pop mail server that I had a bit of success with over the summer. If it doesn't work, I will simply continue to read -- I get my gmail forwarded to me -- but not respond to your posts.

I feel I must apologize for my dozen or so most recent posts which were put together in much haste and without benefit of adequate proof-reading. I hate to foist unpolished material on others. If I can't do it right, I won't do it.

So, keep it up. To the friends I've made over the years, thanks. To the enemies, thanks even more. Tis pity when arbitrary decisions made by 'experts' make computers automatically discriminate.

possibly or possibly not sticking around,
p
