Marty,

You have a weird idea of a mailing list if you think you need to post
something every 8 hours!

This is not a chat session, are you sure you understand the mechanics of a
Internet mailing list?

Don't take this personal, but I can't think of a single mailing list that
would tolerate someone doing what you propose.

It is one thing to remind people, but almost like you assume if they aren't
in front of their computer right when you send it they don't get it.  That
just isn't true.

So, let me see if I have this straight.  Any idiot can post jokes,
comparisons between Bill Clinton and their Vanagon, and virtual
commercial advertisements, etc...

HOWEVER, I can't post an actual (and non-commercial) Vanagon-related
event for the benefit of everyone who uses this more than once every two
weeks?

Hhhmmm...hard for me to understand.  Anyone else?
