Hello guys.
I too think that we have a good list here, but having said that, it is far
too busy, and there are way too many comments made that are unnecessary. I
intended to count the number of posts relating to the Victor Stream, but I
couldn't count that high, HiHi. Really guys, do we really need that many
posts regarding the Stream?
Then we are subjected to any number of posts relating to the Saturday and/or
Sunday nets. Other than the report regarding checkins from the net control,
do we really need all manner of comments about it/them? And of course,
there is the minor issue of inaccurate subject lines. What is up with that?

Extremely well said, Ron!
I echo your sentiments exactly!
This is a truly great list, and I am both proud and honored to be a part of
it!

Subject: The value of our Blind Hams list
I am a member of several email lists, and frankly, this list is the most
informative, most useful, most valuable out of all of them. We have some
really super sharp people on this list, and we openly share our knowledge.
My only complaint and request concerning our Blind Hams list is that we need
to do a little better job remembering to change the subject of our posts,
keeping the subject matched with the actual content of the message content.
I receive numerous emails each day, and I go through them looking at the
person who sent the message and the subject, and depending on who sent it
and what the subject line says the message is about, I will either click on
it and read it, or I'll delete it without opening it. Now, in case you are
wondering, I do not arbitrarily delete any email from this list based upon
who sent it; I respect and value everyone's knowledge on this list, but I'll
admit that I often delete messages based on the subject if it is something
in which I am not interested. However, I am a member of another email list
where I routinely delete emails based upon the person sending them because I
know that some of those people have never, ever posted anything worth
reading! No, I am not a snob; I just have limited time, with lots of things
to do with that limited time, and cannot afford to waste it. I would rather
invest my extra time with my wife, chasing DX, or going fishing. <Smile>
