Re: Suggestion

My suggestion would also be to include an informative subject to the emails
posted to the list. I and I'm sure many others who receive a lot of emails will
delete without reading emails with subject headings such as SUGGESTION!
Is it just me? Am I getting cranky in my old age?
Best regards
Simon
