Tom, how do you feel when you are searching an archive and cannot find something on the topic you want, say, "scratchy records" and never knew that there were a hundred messages about that under the topic, "old record players"? Just a made-up example. But in real time following a list, who cares? There are many sides to the argument, but complaining is just a whine. No information here, folx, please move along. Who's annoying whom? Who's the scold? :-) Lou Judson Intuitive Audio 415-883-2689 On May 26, 2014, at 10:47 AM, Tom Fine wrote: I say again, this is a silly thing to get exercised about. I don't pay any attention to subject lines once a thread gets going. People who must have a super-accurate subject line are asking too much of others. If they scold about it, they then are annoying others, so who's being more rude? -- Tom Fine ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sam Brylawski" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Friday, May 23, 2014 11:02 PM Subject: Re: [ARSCLIST] Comment on accurate subjkect lines Re: [ARSCLIST] New Yorker Article on Patrick Feaster and Carl Haber > You're right, I'm sure, Lou.
