Thanks for the prompt action. I hope the list management comes to a
conclusion that will help maintain and enhance the sense of privacy and
security on this list.

>>>>>it out, sure we all need to  know, but otherwise, things like who

>>>>>beer
>>>>>or has a girl  friend in the corner is not substantiate enough to use
