Thanks, Marie, and cuz you're so nice, I WILL watch the Packers game
(wouldn't normally), and I'll even root for 'em too.
It really IS a matter of simple courtesy to appropriately name the subject
line. What many people don't realize on the net is that when the sender
takes the time to apply one form of etiquette, he or she may be using up
some time, but is saving his collective readers much more time. On a list
with so many subscribers as this one, if I spend a minute, I save
two-hundred people two-hundred minutes collectively. That's the very nature
of courtesy.
