This is another John replying:
I've been on this list, off and on, for about a year now. I have seen the
10 year limit fluctuate quite a bit since I originally subscribed. I don't
really care if a post about Linux or Windows, or Pentium II processors pops
up once in a while, but that's just my opinion, and everyone has a
different opinion about any particular subject.
It is also my opinion that there should only be ONE moderator, and what he
says goes, no ifs ands or buts about it. He should be the one making the
call on stuff like this publicly, not members of the list.
Once again, these words are just my humble opinion and are not meant to
anger, enrage, ignite a flame war, start a massive thread about moderation,
or solve the Y2K problem in any way. So if anything like that happens, it's
not my fault. If anyone wants to argue either way on my opinion, they are
more than welcome to do so privately so as to reduce the signal to noise
ratio.

the 10 year rule - is
it that strict, or just a guideline? I have two
MicroVAX 3600, which
debuted in 1987, but these
weren't produced until 1989. Can I still talk about
them here?
