> think this list is a sloppy, late news feed, or a discussion medium[?]

I find it to be a very good discussion medium.  I have been figuratively
biting me tongue lately because of:
* Thread stealing, good netiquette is:
- if you change the topic, start a new thread
- if you change the topic, but it still very related, just change the subject
* MLP (Mindless Link Propagation)
* Some people posting "me too" responses, sometimes responding to many
thread without adding to the discussion -- of course this is subjective. 
I appreciate how this makes the list feel friendly, but it may be a bit
much.

Cheers,
Lloyd
