list, it would be better structured as topics on a forum on a proper
website in my opinion. >>>

I used to be on loads of email lists like this one (mostly Yahoo lists), 
back in the late 90s/early 00s.  But they all ended up dying a slow 
death thanks to PHP driven web message boards.  This is the only one 
that's survived in the old school format and that's one reason I like 
it.  I like the message board format too, but the advantage of this is 
that I can read the posts at work.  And threads on all forums go off on 
tangents, not just this one.

Cheers,
Janean
