You are right, of course, Evan. Often, in a hurry, I hit Reply All and forget to take off the other names, and it flies out to everybody who was on the post. On other lists, if I hit reply, it goes back to the list and not the others, On this list, hitting Reply sends it back only to the poster. I'm on too darn many lists! I also (and almost just did it here!) forget to trim my posts and leave that footer and 10 person's posts on the reply. Another difference between this list and others. Yahoo lists drop the footer when I hit reply. This list doesn't . I put myself in a corner, give myself time outs, but I forget and do it again anyway. It doesn't take any more time to just hit reply all, and remove the other names. It doesn't take that much time to highlight to what I want to respond. Darn back to my corner AGAIN!

For some reason people send stuff to the List and to me. I always take off a person's name, if I am responding to the List. Unless I forget, or want to say it twice. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
