[Loren A. Billings]

My apologies for sending a scan command to SEELangs; I should have sent it
to _LISTSERV_.  Here I was trying to heed Alex Rudd's advice, and it
*again* caused an unnecessary posting to the list.  I think Alex's point
is well taken, that a carefully composed response could be lost forever if
it just ends up in the original poster's mailbox.  On the other hand, all
the unintended postings to the list (I am responsible for at least three
that I remember) also take up unwanted disk space.  I guess what most of
us feel is this:  We are too busy worrying about other things to have
noticed who we're replying to.  At least now--once I send the _set
seelangs dualhdr_ to LISTSERV--I'll be a little less likely to make
unnecessary postings in the future.

I really appreciate Alex's shepherding of the list.  I am definitely
against having a moderator.  Not all things with moderation, as it were.

As for all my *intended* messages of late, thanks to  R. Konopka, L.
Jasinskyj, and A. Nedashkivska-Adams for their responses since my last
summary and to all those whom I acknowledged in the previous postings.
