This list is the best. We can thank two main people for that. Zoe and Margy. They have over the years taken a great deal of heat, but always maintained a professional approach. Others have helped too. Tom, Dave, Lissa to name but a few. But, in the end the quality and durability of this List is due to the approach taken by Margy and Zoe. I have found nothing to compare, and even when attacked, which has been often, I find value in the ideas expressed. Those times when posts get a bit out of line, seem to be brought back to reality without heavy handed management. Those who do violate the rules are taken off, and some leave for their own reasons. All of that together has created this List, which so far seems to be the best one available. We probably are the reason. From what I can tell, the intelligence level is higher on this List than other groups. But, I might not be smart enough to figure that out. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
