    Would you please post messages from your email servers to
bionet.software.gcg?  I loath email lists but would like to keep abreast
of what is being said with regards to GCG.  Also, stuff posted here gets
archived at bionet and dejanews, making it easy to access later.  Even if
you are planning to archive the messages to your email groups, that's just
another place to check.

    Spam is odious but in a group that averages less than 5 posts a day
(counting the spam) does it really matter?  Not to be contrary, but "total
anarchy" is working fine for me.
