Candice, we didn't speak as one because there was no policy being discussed.
I realize that it is impossible for me to _not be_ a list manager when I
post, but Mark has it right. I was speaking as just one member of the list.
How's this as a solution? In future, anything I post in my official capacity
(bwahahahah!) I will sign as Poetryetc Co-list-manager. Otherwise, everyone
should assume I'm just posting as myself. Just another member of the list.
