Re: [ARSCLIST] at this rate, won't be much to archive soon enough
Can't say that either #1 or #2 bother me much - I grew up reading Burroughs, Celine, dadaists & surrealists & others who took care of that problem early on.
I'm more interested in the content (and all I can say about that is that when I open an ARSC list email, sometimes I win and sometimes I don't....). Have to say that I've learned a lot in the year or so I've been on the list though.

Here's the question of the day --- who's more annoying:
1. the guy who TYPES ALL CAPS
or
2. the guy who never uses the shift key or punctuation and types nonsense runon sentences

-- Tom Fine
PS -- of course there's
3. the scold who jumps on either 1 or 2 (yep, I've been a scold in the past, mainly over 2 since
it's very hard to read blocks of text without sentences clearly defined).
