At least I don't think we need to do this.  As listowner, I have several
options available which may solve the information overload/noise problems
that many of you are complaining about.  These options do not require
having two separate listserv lists to solve your problems.  By the end
of next week, I will give you a summary of the options and see how they
work out.  The features under consideration include the TOPICS and DIGEST
features which are available.  DIGEST collects all messages from one day
and sends them to you as a single file.  TOPICS would allow the establish-
ment of up to 11 topics which you could elect to receive or not.

I will discuss these options with the campus listserv adminstrator and let
you know before the end of next week.  DIGEST is available now to anyone
who takes the time to read the Listserv User's Guide--I'll explain both
options next week.

Please be patient.
