The list has been that way for all the years I've been on it and I've been
here since almost the beginning I believe. We have good times and bad, busy
times and slow. There is always digest mode, the delete button, all that fun
stuff when it gets busy with stuff you don't want to read. You don't have to
read it all, I don't. If you really feel it's not the place for you, you're
sure not going to change it by getting attention saying you're going to
leave so if you do leave, feel free to come back some day, if not, the
attention posting would just add to the very thing you complain about. If
I'm leaving a list, I generally don't announce it.
