Well, the list seems to have considerably 'quietened down' from yesterday, eh! (as I expected it would) :-) So, after some 'deft accident prevention work' I did last night with the system options menus, I think I've managed to prevent another uns******** to the list melt-down vortex from taking place in future. Don't mention the unmentionable uns********, in any listings. It won't get list members anything but a rejection notice now! The right way to do the 'unmentionable' is to use the correct normal 'unmentionable' ;-) process at this link: http://lists.ncf.ca/mailman/listinfo/ottawamusicians (if you really have to and don't mind missing out on some good stuff due to a few initial accidents!) ;-) Anyway, if you review the latest update on the purpose and aims of the list and what it is not intended for because there are better options with the Ottawa Blues, Jazz & Swing Guide, I think this will deal with all of the concerns expressed yesterday. These were mainly caused by the uns******** to the list melt-down vortex that took place as I didn't have enough accident prevention in place. Who knew so many intelligent people would pick the wrong process!!?? For those uns********ees that I've bccd here, if your only withdrawal from the list was based on what took place while the list was going through its initial growing pains and not other good reasons, I invite you to subscribe at some later time and give the list another chance.
