Re: [KLF] RE: [OT] Re: mccartney and streisand (!)
Thomas, by using the cancer analogy (which i take to be a negative comment) are you suggesting that you would prefer the list to be barely registering a pulse.
Not really, but I would like to come home after an evening at the cinema and NOT have to dig through 30+ emails of the same discussions over and over again, person x flaming person y for not believing in theory z and so on. The small rain of OT posts have become a flood of reiterations with the same people ruminating their point of view. I will be in London the whole next week, and it already sends a cold shiver down my spine when I think of my Outlook's inbox...

whilst the extra traffic isnt necessarily bad (not saying its great either), i've ignored most of it based on subject headers. could some one post with a subject line of "what was posted that actually concerned the klf this week" ;-)
Personally as long as its labelled as OT i would rather see some life in the list than wondering if there is any point in staying on.
i kinda feel like this - if [ot] is being used properly then a filter can easily be set. i'm a geek - theres a problem and an answer and i'm happy. though it'd be nice if anyone actually mentions klf stuff in an [ot] post, to then resend that bit to the list without [ot]. whether or not i read [ot] depends on the header, and how busy my life is. currently its being ignored unless it happens to arrive in the inbox at the right moment.

wishing i wasnt semi-serious, but you could use a rule to "mark read" all the [ot] stuff, then ask for a email with that subjectline above? cheers brendan ps- i saw something about aus go past - i hear klf stuff on the radio more than rarely but less than often. its only ever 3am or j&a with tammy.
