How could any of us possibly know if a posting is of interest or not if it is
sent direct and not to the reflector? Sometimes a poster asks for responses to
go direct, and that takes some judgement, but otherwise I hope posts will
continue to be to the reflector, so we can all decide for ourselves if it's of
interest or not. It only takes a second or two to hit the delete button.... so
what's the problem? My 2 cents...

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Replying to the list...AGAIN!
I strongly DISAGREE. Replies should go to the requester ONLY. I had no
interest in "cutting aluminum tubes" and deleted the original plus all
replies,
unread. A good policy is for the original requester to put out a summary of
all the replies received to the whole list, based on replies sent to him
individually. On occasion, I have asked the requester to get back to me
individully with his findings, and this has worked well. This list is the
most
voluminous I subscribe to, mostly because a lot of folks think they need to
put in
their two cents worth (like yours truly) and the train of thought often gets
totally off topic or at least highly irrelevant. If every comment went to
the whole list, I would unsubscribe, as there's just too much trash to wade
through for the few items of interest.
