Yes, the turnaround time on this list is rather slow...which might be a good thing. Faster turn around would probably mean more flame wars, and this list is *the worst* I've been on, in that respect. In fact, I miss a fair number of factual posts because a thread named "how to decompress" turns into "this is why so and so is a jerk" a zillion times over. At some point, the thread goes back to something interesting, but by that time I'm just hitting the delete key. Egroups etc. is ok, but I hate the fact that there is an ad at the end of every message.
