i agree with your points...it's silly to change something that's worked
so well over the years. i'm a member of several e-groups and the distribution
is erratic....it's not nirvana portrayed by some here. i like the omega-
list's small attachment policy cuz some folks would post bit maps and excel
spreadsheets and other such bandwidth hogs. if i must post an attachment
these days, i cross post it on the code-list as suggested by mark.
and paying ain't the answer either cuz i don't think jimo wants a full/part-
time paid position to adminster this zoo ;))

and i'd give the e-groups omega-list about 2 weeks or less to dry up much
like the now defunct rogue traders list....hey brian, how does it to feel
to be right??? :))
