That sounds great, but...as faux said, I'd be bummed
if certain posters who's input I really enjoy didn't
go to the new list.  Since I read more than I post,
I've become fond of some people's viewpoints and I'd
want to stick to the list they're on.  It's still a
great idea and makes sense, I just think some people
might be reluctant to split up the list in that way. 
If a new list was formed, I'd probably join and see if
people were posting the kind of things I like to read
and then decide if I want to stay. Just a thought

~Kathryn, who was amused by the Shark Week story
because one time my mom let me watch the Posiedon
Adventure(boat gets hit by a whale and turns upside
down) the night before my first trip on the Cape
May-Lewes Ferry...and I had to be convinced there were
no whales in the Deleware Bay....
