I do not want to get in the middle of something I'm not involved
with. I'm a former list elf, but haven't been on the MEG list in
about three months. However, from my participation on MEG, I do know
that at least one person on the list is Jewish, and I *suppose* that
the delay that Cindy feels she suffered may've had something to do
with the fact that the post that upset her was made at about 6pm on
Saturday (so Cindy couldn't've sent an email to the MEG list
complaining much before 6pm herself), and more than half the 48.5ish
hours between that moment and the moment that she complained onlist
were taken up by Shabbat and Yom Kippur, which is the holiest day of
the year.
If it were me, I wouldn't assume that I'd get a reply to something
on a day when some of the people who ought to be part of the reply
were incommunicado for religious reasons. It's like expecting a
fully staffed help desk on Easter.
