Hi,

I don't believe it is purposeful ... that is, the personal rather than
public response.  Someone already noted that when they respond from their
Email client it addresses to the individual rather than the public list.  I
subscribe to a number of different lists and the reply from my Email client
(Eudora) always goes to the public list .... except for this one.  I have
to remember to make the effort to substitute the list address instead of
the that of the sender of the original post.  The way my email client is
setup works with all other lists.

No big deal ... just an observation.

Jim, VE3CI
