HOWEVER -- Am I the only one getting -really- fed up with all the 'OT:'
and 'Re: OT' subject lines and off-topic messages?
No!
If a subject is off-topic for the list, then it is
off-topic for the list
and should, IMO, be taken to private E-mail. Just because you mark it OT
does not, in my view, make it OK to clutter the list with it.
I've installed a filter at my end that should dump most, if not all,
messages with OT: in the subject line. However, the point remains that I
should not have had to do so in the first place.
Please take OT's elsewhere. Ok? Thanks!
Well said.
