Hi all,

After having a couple of cups of coffee it dawned on me that the email
from this list is not the same as directly emailing someone (duh) and
the gathering/forwarding process certainly must introduce time delays.

Possibly David could enlighten us as to how and how often messages are
broadcasted.  This would let us know how soon one may expect a
response.  Is the process constantly being performed? Does it happen
once per hour?  If it's a moderated list, does David have to read each
piece of mail before broadcasting?

Also, are there any members of this list that use GMT instead of local
time for their messages?

Color me curious.
