I've tried running spell check and for all the fooling around using auto/mechanical abbrevations I have other things to do. Also, this is a multinational list, and some items lose it in translation. IMHO, BFD. If the writer pretty well puts a point across, if I know the answer, I respond. The list goes thru cycles busy at times, and slower at others. When common research is being done by all it gets huge, when it gets swamped with off list subjects, it seems to talk a break, and then bounce back. Some of the slow times yeild the greatest info.. I happen to be editing the archives, and noone appreciates editing replies better than I, yet at times they are so short, even if you know the thread you can't make sense of the reply.

Non-digest mode works just fine. It's just that it's too great a load for our sponsor's server. IF we can find an email relay for the outgoing diy_efi mail, then we can go back to regular mode. It would have to be someone with at least permanently connected ISDN, preferable better.
