Subject: email subjects, was: VGS-1 Speaking Rate

At this point, I'd like to make a suggestion.  Could folks please change the
email subject when the subject changes?  We get a lot of emails from this
list, and I'd like to be able to trust the subject to describe what's in the
emails.
Thanks

there is a cute little chip monk thing on one of my wierd Christmas cds
followed by a song called "chip munks roasting on an open fire"
