My gripes with this list are the lengthy non ham radio threads, which =
belong on the blind tech and cell phone/ipod related lists and the list =
admin refusing to address the apple issue with sending mail to this =
list.=20
I don't think this would take months to repair and if the list had to be =
brought off line for a week or 2 to fix this problem then why not do it?=20=

As for the lengthy non hr related topics, on other lists dedicated to =
ham radio related equipment, the sender who would continuously post a =
non list subject would be removed from the list.=20
I really think that it would be best if the current admin or admin's =
can't take the time to moderate this list and address the users issues, =
then it should be past on to a group who can do it.=20
On the moderating issue, I was explaining to a gentleman on the FT-102 =
yahoo group about how I couldn't read my manual because A I'm visually =
impaired and B. the old manual couldn't be scanned because I didn't have =
the right scanner or software and he basically gave me the business =
about being like someone who was acting like a person who went into a =
lawn mower store demanding I be sold a pare of shoes. <smile>=20
He was kicked off the list for his comments. If I'm not mistaken, the =
same thing happened on this list last year.=20
A very heated discussion occurred regarding disability wages and so on =
and there was some fowl language used in the back and forth replies. LOL=20=

Nothing was done, at least to my knowledge anyway.=20
But that's the way this list goes, you either set digest or hit the =
delete key. Just like ham radio.=20
If you don't like what's being said, you have that big knob to turn. I =
won't unsubscribe because, although not communicating with everyone, I =
do communicate with a few and I've gotten some valuable assistance.=20
