Bruce, you're sounding cynical.  There is a problem with your site's
mail.  There's been a problem in the past with email replies to news
postings your users make.  Instead of saying it's someone else's
problem you should be ensuring that your user's email will get to
them.  There's a problem in the maps, perhaps.  There's a problem
in your cutover from uunet to psi, perhaps.  But there definitely
seems to be a problem in your system's overall administration,
not perhaps.  You've grown beyond a one-admin site.  Instead of
resting on your mongo big laurels, you should take some serious
time to iron out the wrinkles.

Your local problems affect the entire electronic community in
the Seattle area.  Perhaps it's time to rethink your strategies.
