My $.02, FWIW:
 
   I like it the way it is.  Not all of us have internet access at home;
some have email only.  The variety of inputters to this list only add to
the variety (and the quality?) of the discussion, and challenge all to
review their assumptions.  (Example:  I had assumed, from our bee club
members' advice, that terramyacin was broken down by water, and shared it
here.  I was gently corrected.)  I have learned much here from others
sharing.
 
   The internet is no longer just the property of the
universities/governments, but is very inclusive now of many different
backgrounds.  This is actually an improvement!  There are real people
here!  Personally, I think this is one of the _better_  disciplined
groups I have seen on the net, even with the "divergent" discussions.
(I have yet to see vulgarity, profanity, etc.)  I may not agree with some
of the inputs, but I'll defend the rights of all to input them!  I value
and cherish them all, (and use my delete button judiciously ;-].)  This
list gives us all an opportunity to meet people from the world over with
similar interests.  We just gotta all learn to get along.
 
   Count your blessings!
