Hi folks, Much as I like this discussion, it's starting to clog my inbox (though I realize the irony of emailing this to the list). I replied to the original poster, but just to her. I really like the interaction with all of you, but if it gets too much then people end up leaving the list, which would be a shame (I've seen this with other lists). Perhaps one of the tech-savvy people here could set up a psci-com forum so we can chat there?
