Pre-TNE mail list

I'll keep this short, but here is my .02Cr on splitting the list. I enjoyed
CT and never really liked MT. I can deal with TNE. Except for the change in
the Maneuver Drives I like the new vehicle design better.
I don't want to see the mailing list split. But seeing how some people pay
for their mail by the byte I can understand not wanting to recieve mail you
don't want. It is throwing money away to them. For me mail is part of my
basic service at a local BBS. For $0.25 an hour I can afford extra mail. So
rather than lose the CT posters, I must say split the list. I can afford to
subscribe to another mailing list and I will as I'm interested in Traveller in
ALL forms.
The tagging of messages by prefixing them with a CT, MT, or TNE was a great
idea. And would work if this was a newsgroup and I could use a off line
reader. With the mailing list though, you still run into the price per byte
for some people.
Again, these are my views, but I believe they make sense.
One last comment on something someone else mentioned. TSR supports multiple
setting for AD&D. You're right. Why didn't GDW do the same? And rather than
the virus, cleaning up after the Rebellion would have taken a few hundred
years anyway.
