[Coco] bit.listserv VS. these moderated lists

I think everyone should take a few minutes to step back from this
conversation, and try to find at leasy a little validity in the
oposing point of view. I think some are taking the debate way too
personally...

Boisy's suggestion to migrate back to the bit.listserv.coco was meant,
I'm sure, to bring that who did not migrate back into the fold...
Great suggestion from that point of view. The opposing point of view,
that the listserv address gets (or would get) too much spam is also a
valid arguement. If everyone could realize these two views are not
conflicting, but both valid, then I think the debate wouldn't be
getting personal :)
