To the list:
For some time I have placed an automatic delete rule in my email program on
"Indigo Nights" attributed messages. The simple reason is refusal to deal
with aliases. After all, "on the internet, no one knows you're a dog"
(woman, man, ocelot, or gnu). I neither know nor care whether this handle
belongs to a man or woman or to the SAME man or woman every time. I just
don't participate. I just find my recycle bin clogged by messages I didn't
read. Now I find my in box clogged with message ABOUT "Indigo Nights".
I have found this list to be pretty handy for discerning the issues facing
old timers and neophytes, the hardware problems faced by everyone, and
off-the-wall problems which cannot be categorized. That does not include the
sexually explicit missent (Lord, I hope it was missent, or my museum
expertise is more outdated than I'd feared) exchange I deleted this morning.
But issues -- and I hasten to add finding a job and keeping a job are
qualifying issues -- seem to be less and less in evidence. Looking in once
weekly wouldn't hack it for me since part of my enjoyment of a listserv is
the daily or hourly stimuli it provides. I think I'll give it another week
or two before retiring to intensive navel - gazing. And of course doing the
work I get paid to do.
