Katie,
I agree.  I scan all my E-mails before I open anything, then it's family and
friends first, delete whatever looks like somebody trying to sell me
something and then I go back to the beginning and go thro    ughwhat'sleft.If
I see a topic and then lots of Re:Such & such, I read the original so see if
I want to go on with the rest.  If it's a topic I don't find interesting or
relevant, I can delete the rest.
I know there have to be some guidelines for list content, but I think we all
agree, these are unusual circumstances and some folks just need an outlet for
their concerns and anger---at the situation, NOT each other.  People who go
out into the world each day to work or shop or whatever have others to
discuss things with.  Those who don't have daily contact with many people
need someone to "talk" to and from what I know of this list, it's made up of
friends who just don't happen to have physically met each other.
Well, that's my two cents worth on the subject, for what it's worth.
Eleanor
