I think that I did just as you suggest. When I thought that the group
was off track, I did post a comment on that issue (if I remember
correctly, the post that I thought was off was something about an urban
legend or something). I don't remember who the poster was (and it
really isn't important) but all of a sudden there was posting after
posting saying something like "joke" in the subject line and including a
joke of some sort or another (also, I think that was something about my
sense of humor). Hey, no problem if that is what folks want -- it's
just not my cup-o-tea for a automotive based email list. As to using
happy faces, well, maybe good advice for some but emoticons just aren't
my style. Kim
