I agree with Diane,
Managing this huge and cumbersome list is something someone else should
be doing. Sean's informative postings are so valuable that I've saved
many as well.
However, what are we to do? Without his commitment and dedication, we
wouldn't have a list at all!
We've all grown so used to having it here, we've forgotten how we'd feel
without it, and, yes, we take it and all his hard work for granted. I
know I owe him a big dose of gratitude. Thankyou, thankyou, Sean!
And, about those people who repeatedly relapse, then want help
re-subscribing. I say just dump their messages in the "delete". I'm
afraid the popularity of the forum will be the end of it!
