The problem with the reflector is not the often pointles e-mail, but
rather that some of the subscribers are being ripped off by various
"services"! I think a discussion of "policing" is premature to us
who pay nothing. A better discussion would be how to lower the cost
for those who do have to PAY. I was suprised myself last month (?)
when an unsubscribe message came through with a comment that $50 a
month was being spent. I certianly wouldn't spend that much. There
much be some way to lower the spread,
does anyone who pays spend less, like $10 per month? I still wouldn't
spend that much but I pay more for a phone at home which I rarely use.
Finally, for those who do PAY, why not send an e-mail message directly
to President Clinton to lower the cost of this "Electronic Highway"??
Most of us have the Internet address, don't we?
