If digests sound interesting to you, please take a moment to review the

elsewhere that run on a "when the moderator thinks there's enough for
a digest" basis. Being able to say "when there are more than 1000 lines

My reasoning here is that it would suit me more to get LCad in lumps,
so I can sit down and read 20 messages at a time instead of (as now)
only looking at LugNet every week or so. And once I'm on the move and
reading mail via web gateway in cyber-cafes being able to get
big chunks in each message will save dollars. Or are US cyber-cafes
so cheap that won't matter?

Thanks
