George wrote: " Frank Reed's recent invitation to defect to another list" My understanding is that no defection is called for. Rather, there is an opportunity to ALSO join, if tempted, an alternative. As Frank has noted, it may take off, or not. George also gives us the benefit of his unfavourable character assessment of Frank, and as always we are grateful for his wisdom and insight. "I am going to need more persuading, before venturing into this new lifeboat" No one is talking about a lifeboat, George. You feet are hardly likely to get wet. Its a discussion group at issue here, or rather two of them. Altogether too much colourful hyperbole, George, I fear .. such modest change as this proposes is nothing to get so excited about.
