I would love to unsubscribe however there is still interesting material flowing thru. Right now, if I suspect that a thread is inmaterial I just select all the messages and hit delete . So if you have something interesting and relevant to this mailing list I suggest you change the subject line cause I am very certain that I am not the only one who does bulk deletes 8) Amancio >From The Desk Of J Wunsch : > As Jordan K.
