List Etiquette

I do realize that I am not the moderator of the list but do think that this
is a worthy reminder to all. 

It is  consider usual list etiquette to keep one liner messages, thank you
messages and messages intended for a particular person off the list or sent
directly to the intended recipient. The reason for this  being is to prevent
list members having a cluttered inbox  with many irrelevant and messages
that  have no value. 

I am not targeting Marcy directly  rather reminding the list as a whole but
saw 10 messages from you in a row. 

Another thing to keep in  mind is that if possible, try grouping several
messages  into one single message rather than having several responses with
one or two lines in each.  

Thanks, 

Kevin
