Hi, Rich -
Participation on both lists is voluntary.
You are not obligated to stay subscribed to boo if you do not like the volume.
Personally, I think the split into two lists was a great idea, precisely
because it allows us to choose which conversations we want to follow, or join.
One thing that has become vary clear since the invention of email is that
attempts to drive discussions and comments off the internet as a whole are
doomed to failure. Even stuff that is illegal and IMO totally reprehensible
(child pornography, snuff videos) can't be completely eliminated.
So, we have to make our own choices about which parts of the great river of
information flowing at us we let in, and which we let flow past.

Subject: [boo] This kind of saddens me.
Ever since the Bundy gang blew into Burns I've noticed that some things on OBOL
are different. OBOL has added the BOO mail list for discussing touchy subjects,
Ever since it's introduction, BOO has had more emails in my inbox than OBOL,
Mid Valley and Umpqua Birds combined. I used to love the posts on OBOL and the
others. I joined the BOO list to keep tabs on the scuttle butt. Now, I can't
believe that the number of OBOL posts now pale in number to the number of posts
on the BOO mail list.
Can't we just get back to talking about the birds?
