Dear Digest Pinholers,
Just a gentle reminder...
Please do not hit the "reply" button to respond to or send new messages to
the listserv if you are subscribed in the digest mode. By replying
instead of sending a new message, the subject of your message becomes
re: Pinhole Daily Digest

Other pinholers then see that as the subject of your message when the
subject is really something else. This becomes especially critical when I
archive pinhole onto the TI web pages at
http://netra.exploratorium.edu/ti/alumni/pinhole.html

where pinholers can look at past messages or a subscriber can search
for messages by subject. Lots of good messages will be missed if the
subject is listed as
Re: Pinhole Daily Digest
instead of the true subject.

Sorry to be so long-winded, but the more careful we all are, the more
useful the listserv and its archives will be to all of us.

Thanks,
Deb
