[Taxacom] question -- topic length

There is no preset on this sort of thing. Different people have
different interests and levels of involvement. The price of being on a
list is that there may be many topics of minimum and no interest. The
delete button is your only option, and even with a lot of emails I have
timed the effort to less than 15 seconds - especially when there is a
block with the same heading so one can do them altogether(and I still
have 10 digits at last count).

good morning folks
not directing to anyone in general except the top 5, how do you guys
decide when a specific topic has been ragged to death ad nasium?  and
who makes the decision and how do  you alert the others that it is over
and the time has come to pick a new one (two or three)?
this morning there were 45 items from taxacom i had to delete. i am
wearing the key and my finger out!.
gena



where are you
cheers!  rof
