Thanks to Ramona Curry for expressing what are probably the opinions of many
subscribers on this list in articulate, non-flaming fashion.  I second them
whole-heartedly.
 
Nothing is going to interest everyone, and it's not too difficult to determine,
through subject headings, which items will be of interest to oneself.  I'm a
tad compulsive and read -- or at least scan -- everything, but hey, that's my
headache.  I'm also free to dump the mail with headings that don't interest
me.
 
The more discussion, the better, I say.  And if discussions sometimes include
lists of films, that's okay.  You never know what's going to make brain
synapses fire more rapidly and productively.
