Re: [weblogs] OneList guts eGroups   Topic List   < Prev Topic  |  Next Topic >

Hmmm that's interesting.

I'd like to move to a list where you don't have that power Jorn. Now I
understand why some of my messages never got through, or were bounced with a
message saying that the moderator would have to approve the post.

I cringe when I read an article, for example, that says that it's subject to
debate which weblog was first. Is it really? Other than you, who thinks so?

And when oh when will you get over yourself Jorn and point to Scripting News
from your Weblog FAQ page?

This is the stupidest Cold War I've ever participated in. Thanks for
listening.

Dave
