Re: IDLE CHIT-CHAT

Some discussion groups have "Bylaws" that define subject areas. Others have
"moderators" that do some selection. Personally, I'd like to keep the list
as open as possible. Often, "idle chit-chat" leads to serious discussion.
The fascinating thing about these groups is how subjects (and discussants)
move in and out. And what is chit-chat to one is serious to another.
Patience!
