Hi all!

I know that many people have been unsubscribing, etc. but I really do appreciate the list as it is a great way to get in touch with people who might be doing something in a certain area! So I'd like to ask if anyone is doing anything on street/prison gangs? I am, as part of my PhD, aiming to develop a social psychology framework of gang membership (why join, leave, stay, or leave but still help out). If anyone has any ideas that might help me out or would like to cooperate as you're doing something similar, please, do get in touch!

Dear Jeremy Miles,
I have a post graduate degree and abhor how you are being treated after putting so much work into keeping this group together for sharing Academic learning materials. Perhaps when the next university intake of students to Post Graduate study is admitted then there will be more students requiring help. I take it that these students are now afloat as far as a career is concerned/ or have failed their courses.
I have contributed a very little, statistically, and hope to in the future, with the small knowledge that I do possess.
Best Regards,
JAM

I should learn to send one email, sorry.

There's a certain amount of unwritten, or partially written, rules
around email lists.  One of the reasons I started this list is because
when you do something stupid on a mailing list (such as send a reply
to the list, instead of the sender*) it's nice to do it in a more
supportive and friendly environment such as this one.

*Which I haven't done for years, but did a couple of days ago. I'd
been kind of polite to a person on the list who had said I was
unqualified to discuss their ideas.  I said they were right, I was
obviously unqualified and I wouldn't talk about it any more. Then I
sent a message to someone else I'd been talking to - but I replied to
their message that they sent to the list, not the message they sent to
me, and said "Yes, they're mad. I can't stand it any more".  Oops.
[Incidentally, the person who I called mad had proven the existence of
God (and not just any god, but specifically the Christian god of the
King James version of the bible), through the use of factor analysis.

Jeremy, what's your theory on the droves unsubscribing?

It happens occasionally when the list gets active. People say that
they can't handle the volume of emails.   I think it's because they
haven't learned about filtering, and they haven't realized you don't
need to read every email you get sent.

I think those are useful skills to have (and you're going to have to
get them at some point - I've had 133 emails so far today, and it's
lunchtime here).

Also: Steve, I wasn't trying to reassure you, I just used you as an example.
