Yep... in this day and age when the Internet's been "mainstream" for
several years there's really no excuse for that type of inconsiderate
behavior.

Don't know what's up with that, sounds like the list server is
configured to just pass along whatever comes into it without any
filtering.

It was a video about someone flying a model airplane in a confined
indoor space (a gym, or something like that). As I said in an earlier
e-mail, semi-interesting but absolutely nothing to do with celnav, and
I really didn't appreciate my e-mail download being held up by it - and
I'm sure it would be even more irritating for the folks who are still
on a dial-up connection.
