I also agree -
I have learned a lot through the years in this forum - including about
myself.. and planning on learning more..
All extremes are bad, if that's the right word? - - plain common sense
should prevail - in the number of replies- arguments - agreeing or
disagreeing..

I believe that I was one of the original 6-8 people on the e-mail discussion group that Geff ingeniously developed using the Baylor server in 93-94. I am speaking for him here, but I believe his original intent was to develop an online OB/GYN journal that allowed for immediate publication rather than the typical 1-2 year delay in current hard copy journals. Since that time, the concept has grown into OBGYN.net and remains one of the most important resource for my day to day practice.

What I hear many saying is that the posts should be concise, the responses pithy and don't carry subjects out on tangents that continue for hundreds of posts. Further, one can always communicate with a particular individual via private e-mail if there is something slightly off subject directed to one person. The common thread we all share is women's health care and being able to get ALL perspectives is valuable. We are also all quite busy and sorting through a hundred e-mails per day is cumbersome, so using common sense regarding posts in crucial - I think we all get each other's point with one post...
