lists and what is useful, etc.

["WILLIAM E. BLASS" <BBLASS - at - utkvx.utk.EDU>]

It would seem that useful exchanges of information, hints, suggestions,
 position availability, even a short a nnouncement of being "at
 liberty"
 by a newly minted Ph.D. - all give meaning and value to a Listserve list.
 For those bothered by a given class of messa, the same thing done with
 junk mail of no interest can be done here - DELETE.
 It is very easy, in the comfort of one or another well supported,
 well endowed, set of circumstances to begin to propose that life and lists
 should conform to what I like to think of as "highly localized"
 standards...
 I, for one, find the list worth reading and often pass along postings of
 one form or another, to persons who would never see the item were it
 not posted here.
 Of course, 'tis only a physicists view, and we all know what that infers ;-)
