Hey Cindy,
    Personally I feel that OT in the subject line should suffice. I would
hope that folks remember that BookShare are the ones who set guidelines, not
any list member who dislikes what others post. If folks would like BookShare
to set down guidelines as to what can and cannot be posted, then they should
write to them directly about the issue. That said, there's nothing wrong
with someone else starting an off topic list. I would in fact, encourage it.
I merely want to point out that I do not want to get messages telling others
that their thread needs to be moved to the other list. When BookShare sets
down guidelines and a post violates them, then by all means tell them to
move it, but please don't do it before then.

Just my nickel's worth,
Jake
