John,
Its not a problem. I don't have to comment on list administration that
often. Given that we have a international membership of around 375, the
list is well disciplined and runs very well. But we are primarily an
academically based list, although there is a considerable body of expertise
in mining history outside higher education, and cannot be sidelined into
issues outside the subject area.
If it is mining history then it is open for discussion.
Peter
