Hello,

I don't usually have anything to say in regards to netiquitte on this
list. However, I've noticed a recurring problem as of late and it's
eating at me: It seems that some folks are reading this mailing list
exclusively for answers to their own questions. In other words, they
are not reading the other threads happening on this list. This leads
to people asking questions that have just recently been answered, or
at least covered in some depth.

Jaime,

A lot of good points made. One thing I would also suggest is to think about the subject in the original post. When receiving the digest I generally browse the table of contents for interesting subjects. Then scroll to the ones that interest me. I have often times remembered a subject from weeks ago that didn't interest me at the time, but is now important and it gives me a start in searching the archives.

Just my two and a half cents.

Rick Davis
