Well I'm in the UK, and I'm with Don 100%. It's not at all apparent to me
what benefits there would be from having our own list. Everyone benefits
from the great pooling of knowlege and experience that is midrange-l.
That's the power of the Internet - it allows us all to be inhabitants of
the Global Village. And it has to be said that the great majority of the
useful information comes from the U.S. although there are significant
contributions from all parts of the world. Midrange-l is my most useful
single resource. Apart from that I actually enjoy swapping ideas with
people in other countries. It ain't broke; don't try to fix it.
