A hearty thank you, once again. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.

One of the things I treasure about this list is that I can participate in
the free flow of ideas presented here. The 'rules' are few and center
mostly around mutual respect and general netiquette. It's a shame when some
persist in ignoring the few guidelines necessary to preserving the freedom
we all share.

Again, thank you.
