I guess it is time for me to add my 2 "sense" to the discussion.
This is precisely why I support Plan A. Both Foote & Steffen raise
important points. But, I remember when I first started to use the
system ....oh the mistakes (even to the present). I would not want
to discourage the new fresh minds from participation nor those of
scientific stature. Both make for lively interaction. I know I
needed help from the list when I started and indeed got it. I have
encouraged our students to use Bionet early in their careers so
that as the evolution of BioSci occurs they might judge its effective-
ness and perhaps guide its continued progress. I guess, as several 
others have said, I don't mind hitting the delete key 20 times a day.    

   Regards,

      Bill
