Re: Suggestion to avoid repetitious answers.

Rob,

I agree with your assessment of duplicate responses.  I read the posts to
the list the same way you do.  David G. will appreciate your thoughts as
well....Those are $$$ he can devote to improving this list rather than
passing on the same response multiple times!

Regards,

Mike Shaw

>One thing I do when reading this mailing list is to read every message,
deleting those that don't interest me.  Then, if someone hasn't already
replied to an email with the same reply I was going to give, then I'll reply
to that message.  For example, let's use the CRTPF without DDS question.
Judging by the answers, many of you came up with a good idea, for most of us
it was the same good idea.  I had saved the first question, because I too
was going to respond.  But after seeing that someone already responded with
my response I deleted them all.  Thus saving me the time of typing up a
response and you, ladies and gentlemen, from downloading and reading the
responses.  To each their own, just a suggestion.  I do realize that there
seems to be a huge delay in messages sometimes.  I'll send out a message and
then I'll wait 65 minutes for the message to get bounced back to me from the
list.  Perhaps many of you are responding after getting the question and
prior to the other ans!
