Hi, I'm very glad that the Neighborhood list has been useful for folks when they are seeking information. I have a suggestion--one that should strike a balance with those who value having a smaller number of messages to read... When you send a request for information, ask for replies to be sent only to you--and offer to send a summary of responses. Wait a week or so for the responses to come in, then send a message summarizing the responses as briefly as possible. Rudy
