This is not a democracy:  it is Brian's list.  If you don't like it, go
found a Hasselblad List and you may run that as you wish.  (Whoops!  You've
already done that one!  Sorry.)

Seriously, you are barking up the wrong tree here.  Allow us our foibles,
and we'll allow you yours.  Delete buttons are wonderful.  And there are
E-Mail Clients which cost nothing and allow you to do your E-mail off-line,
so that all we pay for is the up-load/down-load time.

I rarely intrude into discussions on the Rollei List, which I own, but,
occasionally, must do so.  But, that is normally when they turn ugly, not
because folks are discussing something off-topic.  (Though, frankly, we
have yet to talk about Scotch whiskies or fountain-pens on the Rollei List!)

This is a lively bunch who insist on speaking, even when they have little
Leica-related stuff to speak of.  So be it.  

I love you folks, though you make my blood pressure rise on occasion, and I
can serve my role cheerfully as the List Curmudgeon.
