I'm a big fan of the delete key, but remember this list caps out at 10
messages a day and each person can only post twice a day. This tells me
the focus of the list should be pretty narrow. If it's too broad then we
will end up getting very little meaningful information on any subject.

There's also the signal to noise ratio. As I said in another example, I
stopped following a list on MP3 players when they started allowing
discussions on the IOS devices and VoiceOver. 90% of the list traffic
quickly switched to IOS devices, so I stopped following that list
because it just didn't make any sense for me to hit the delete key on
90% of the messages coming into a list. I also stopped following a games
list when there was more traffic bashing game developers and list
members flaming each other than there was discussion on the games
themselves. Just hitting the delete key isn't always the answer.

Either way, it's up to the list and the list moderators. These are
nothing but my opinions. the list will either be valuable to me or it
won't, which doesn't make me any different than anyone else or this list
any different than any other list.
