RE: use or abuse of listservs

Hello all,
I'm a member of various academic listservs. Invariably, this topic
always surfaces. One list in particular decided that posts not addressing
a specific query or thread of discussion would be labled "TAN" in the
subject header. That way, readers who were short on time or patience could
skip the tangent subjects while reading other posts of interest. Just a
suggestion.
