We could have an entire chapter of "Ooops!" messages... private emails that
accidentally got sent to the whole list. <G>
Seriously, it's a neat idea to create such a book, but it's sooo monumental
a task, I doubt anyone (nor a group of anyones) could do it. I think the
archives are the best way to utilize the information because you can search
for things so quickly. When I had my laptop, I often curled up on the
couch to read Iris-Talk. I don't have that luxury anymore with my iMac.
What you could do is pick an interesting topic and write up an article for
the AIS bulletin (or other publication) crediting the folks of Iris-Talk.
Of course you'd have to get everyone's permission, but I doubt that would
be an obstacle.
