Thank you, Mary, for expressing my thoughts. I often wonder why some people
post to the whole list just to say a personal thank you or a request to one
person. As a result I can have 50 or so emails to look at. I open everything
and delete, delete, delete this extraneous information because I am afraid of
missing something good. I found the Digest version doesn't work for me.
An easy way to send personal info to someone for our list is to copy and
paste their email address from the arted email. Unfortunately, everything
that goes to Lyris coms to all of us.
Sometimes, I will open an email that only has "Me too" on it (Woody is
forgiven!) but the subject was of a relevant thread. Time consuming to say
the least. If you want to use the net anyway to contact someone, then put
"personal note to...." in the subject line, pleeeeeze.
