[meteorite-list] (AD) Art...delete me or SSteve from here now! Thank you!

Dave and List,
I know how you feel Dave. But, while I see Steve Arnold #2 as being a 
substantial problem on the List, he isn't the only problem.

A couple of weeks ago I sent a personal email to Art expressing some of my 
own frustrations and told him I was thinking about leaving the List. What 
I'd really like to see is for the Meteorite List to regain it's focus on 
meteorites and get rid of all of the "AD" posts including all of the 
"reminders" about Ebay auctions along with all of the other "off topic" 
posts.  I know I'm not the only one who is frustrated because I receive 
lots of commiserating private mail from people after I speak up like I did 
early today.  Maybe I should join ranks with my buddy Dave and take a stand 
towards cleaning up the Meteorite List.  Getting rid of a habitual offender 
would be a good start.

Does anyone else share my opinion or are you content to leave the list the 
way it is?

Regards,

JKGwilliam
