Please hold off on doing anything! This was done in innocence in ILCA's
early days -- when we realized what a can of worms it opened, the policy
was made. But of course, MJ is still reaping the "benefits" of that
early on faux pas. It WAS done, and ILCA can't exactly say, "Oh gee,
we've changed our minds". MJ isn't exactly saying that this was done in
1990 (or whatever) and they no longer endorse or anything else....
See my several posts on this....(the problem w/ digests is that the
response doesn't get out quite as quickly as one might like!)
