Dave, I can't say I agree with you.  There has been a lot of discussion over
"appropriate" use of the CIPS-L list and IMNSHO this newsletter is SPAM.
What's next? More "newsletters"?  Why not dole out the CIPS-L ID list to
Microsoft?  After all, their WinNews 95 newsletter is certainly interesting
reading.  If MS tried to misuse the CIPS list you can bet that irate CIPS
members would be all over them like a cheap suit.

I say keep CIPS-L for CIPS issues; go subscribe to whatver you want, but don't
automatically assume that CIPS members want this kind of thing.  I get enough
junk mail already.

Regards
Tom Ruta
