We have been though this before, but since it's xmas and bandwidth should be
somewhat slow, I thought I'd offer my opinion. I think the problem is with
repeated postings of sale lists. Being very general, there are many people
on this list that like the sale lists and many that don't. I think the
bottom line should be, is what you post of interest to people on this list.
People that have done sale lists (myself included) know that when an initial
message is sent to this list stating that items are for sale, the response
is usually overwhelming. Point being, there is interest. Nobody is going to
find EVERY post on this list of interest, but to get on people who post sale
lists is pretty self-centered.
Merry Christmas,
