Permit me to bend one of the Digest rules by agreeing with this suggestion
wholeheartedly. I am a lurker on the Digest, and found the
RE debate important, but too long and too acrimonious to read - and too much
storage to save. If Martin does not want to extend the debate by doing this
on the Daily, I would like to hear privately.
