[Pons, Lisa (ponslm)]

Yes, I tend to agree- no problem at all though_ at least I found a list!
 
Also, some of the SS products will overlap, and many of us have more than one product anyway...
 
Just my opinion though!

Hi,

I'd just like to interject my opinion, though many people will not recognize who I am (in the words of another list member "longtime lurker, first time poster"). I feel rather strongly about this though:

Unless there's a ton of traffic on either one of these "channels", I think it's better to just stick with one list. I think it will simplify communication and allow some crossover pollination between the two (or more) "channels". Sorry, as I know Lisa's done some work on setting up the Central Search list.

Less is more, I say.

Thanks for asking!
