Hey all, I find lately that I'm using repetitions in subentries, and wanted to hear what others think about it. My goal is of course clarity, but maybe I'm...
Someone just sent me the following information, which I thought those on this list would be interested in: Dear Friends, Yahoo is now using something called...

Yes, and before we start bashing Yahoo overly much, let's try to remember that all of these groups are free of charge. The only way we pay is by having to...
... I think it depends! ;-) If the whole book is about architectures, then your second example might be better. If the book is about larger ideas with...
... Hi Rae, First, why not just delete the word and its variants from your subentries? Under "architectures" why not have "exceptions processes" as the...
Hi Pilar, What you said makes perfect sense. I guess I am hesitant to change word forms, such as using the noun form "architectures" instead of the adjective...
Welcome, Charles! I appreciate you taking the time to do this. Barbara E. Smith In a message dated 1/31/2004 5:49:53 PM Eastern Standard Time, ... [Non-text...
Hi Rae, ... ah yes, the good ole do or don't I ... ya gotta be brave to be an indexer these days, I thunk. ;-D Seriously, sometimes, in my experience, it's...
My message from my home ISP bounced but sometimes posting from the yahoo website of a list sort of straightens it out. We'll see if I can post from home now. ...

Hey guys, don't forget there was a very nasty worm that started last week, and email is screwed up everywhere. If you're having trouble posting, it's probably...
Well, you know what guys? I think because of the important issue of saving archives, that that single reason is enough to seriously consider closing this list....
For anyone having problems posting, here is something to add to Rae's earlier message. According to a bulletin from Yahoo Groups (note the subject words that...
I would hope that Yahoo are rejecting messages with exactly those subject lines, not any subject line containing those words. They are (some) of the subject...
First, Rae, I want to thank you for starting this group. That said, I do agree that if the Index-L issues leading to this group's formation have been/are being...
Let's not rush into things here. I haven't gotten any such notice from Yahoo regarding indexersunlimited.org on the Yahoo group and we have a lot more...
Just an idea. How about the following? -- Encourage use of Index-L for specific indexing/business problems (including software/equipment/time...

All good ideas, Marge, but all that would never happen. Too many people, and no one will want to bother. Flames can go to indexbar (we love flames over there),...
Just a quick clarification: I didn't mean to be negative about people who never (or seldom) post; I just wondered if, given the fact that the list was ...
... OK, we won't but it's important enough to consider it. None of my other lists (some of which are very large and have been around for years) has run out of...
Thanks for the response, Charles. I didn't mean that you had been negative; I just wanted to suggest that quite a few list subscribers are "active lurkers." It...
I'm glad Pauline. Actually, if there isn't active management/moderation, people can change email addresses, simply drop off, etc., but forget to subscribe....
... Am I the only packrat around that saves all messages? Each month I move them from the mailing list's main mailbox into one that contains only that month's...

Hey all, I was just looking over our membership list (wow, 91? Really?) and saw a member who just joined today with a very obscene name. I am sure that an...
Hi Deanna, you are very observant but we're already on it so to speak LOL. The member with the obscene name is on moderator status and won't be able to post...
Rae, Don't be too fast to put folks getting NO-MAIL on moderated status. I use the NO-MAIL option quite frequently. Everytime I am away for more than a day I...
Ah, Rae, don't get me started on postings. I'm the one who never suffers from Writer's Block or Questions Block! But, here's something new for me. Got a 1099...
