Hi guys,
I keep opening the High Top messages and find being talked about different
issues.
Let's be practical and rename the subject when it's not about the original
issue.
That's my proposition.
The archives are fully stuffed with useless emails that have different
subject lines.  Not logical.
Sure, memories will bring up all kind of stories, but name the baby
differently.
Love the list, I learn lots, keep many of the well written mail, great
advisors, saved many, keep it up just the same.  Renaming the subjects would
contribute to the good quality.
Thanks guys.
Zoltan
