The list is supposed to be slow, to keep flame wars to a minimum. If you have a few hours to reconsider your remarks, you often think better of them. Secondly, the list is for dissemination of tech diving information, not so we can chat it up in real time as though it were an IRC chat room. Nothing going out needs to be read so badly that it won't wait a few hours. Egroups and others of their ilk post an ad onto every mail, and the SPAM rate skyrockets. I get enough credit card offers and crap like that as it is on my email; I don't want more due to this list, which has been wonderfully SPAM free in my experience.
