Well, in reply to Stan Blum's message, I have to just weigh in heartily with those who think that this list is useful as it is. I guess moderation would help, depending on the moderator (I strongly discourage Mr. Blum from taking on that responsibility), but really, museum-serious vs. museum-chat? How would I decide which to join? I guess I'd have to join both, and that should certainly cut down on the amount of email I have to look at. I am, however noticing *lots* of repeat messages, and lots of postings of administration messages to the list. Is there some problem with the Listserv that we should know about? Best regards to all, and chin up, we really are an OK list, don't be discouraged... Eric Siegel [log in to unmask]
