Kman, Your post show up instaneously?.. Well that is nice for you. One
lister I tried previously took several days to publish a post. Really
made it frustrating to try to participate in a conversation. So I hope
you can understand why I am not to excited about list servers. Even
during our previous debacle of a discussion, last November, when I
posted, I had to typically wait for several hours to see my own post,
and I had no idea when you saw it, and were able to respond so quickly.
But then I had to wait again several hours for your post to be
published so that I could respond. They blamed it on bandwidth, but
three to four hour lag time was hard to live with.

I did check out the list server that Melissa referenced, and in their
FAQ they state that due to the filtering process, there is a lag time
from post to publication. There was also the fact that they were
located in Germany, and a number of their functions were addressed in
German. No spreckenzie Deutz!

So if you have a list server that does not have this problem, I would
be more than glad to check them out. I would also be glad to hear from
you how else you feel that the list server is preferable to going
directly to Google.

So this ability to post directly on the forum at the web portal is very
nice now for me. I can post, and after only a few minutes, I can see
it published. I do understand, that the multiple postings would be
distracting to you, if the cancelled post at my end is still published
at yours. I will continue to work on not doing that. I will also use
the preview button more carefully and check for spelling errors. I
again realize that we all make sp errors, and I have been ridiculed by
some on this forum for previous spelling errors. So I have tried to be
more careful to correct them. TnT
