I am now ready to post the results of my proposal (see ikonas.17). I received 9 responses, of which 6 aggreed 100%, 2 aggreed conditionally, and one disagreed (he suggested I use "notesfile"). For those of you who do not remember my proposal, I suggested that everyone should reply to a query by MAIL, not by news. I would like to add to my proposal that if there is enough intrest in a query, then the responses should be summerized and sent out via news. Judging by the number of responses I got, "sufficient" intrest might be defined as 5-6 peices of mail. I'll leave the actual number up to the people asking the questions. The main thing to remember is that a very large number of people are reading what you send out. People may be making opinions about you based on what you say (and how often you say it.) I am sorry if you have seen this message before, but the article did not appear at mcnc the first time I sent it. Mike Mitchell ucbvax!decvax!duke!mcnc!ikonas!mcm
