GPZList Digest, Vol 20, Issue 23

[David Beard]

I must agree with Phil. Email is cumbersome, especially if you have to 
sort through digest mode. A forum based site is not perfect, but it's 
there when you want to see it and not cluttering up your email when 
you've got other things to do. I belong to several other forums and 
visit them on a regular basis, and agree with Dave that I like to get an 
email when a thread I am watching gets a post. However, I can ignore 
sections that I am not interested in. I don't have to follow the same 
old tire and oil threads if I don't want to.

Just my $.02 though. I appreciate the work that Dave has done on the 
site over the years pro bono. Though I am no longer a GPZ owner, I enjoy 
the list and the camaraderie of the listees.
