As a limited but interested student I completely agree with the message
below - I felt, it should be repeated, and please, if you can afford,
avoid included original messages in your replies to all !  Attachments
whatsoever shouldn't be "absolutely necessary" - unless you found YOUR
partner via the list, to do it !

Andrea Lini - is there a way to get a periodical (and maybe reviewed ?!)
PRINT OUT of the list conversations ? It would save me a lot of work with
my endavor to have it archived in a nice look-it-up-comfortably-at-home
form lateron, because IT IS a good list !

        Thanks - Helmut, Austria
