Hi, Seth:  You raise a good point.  However, if I may.  What's interesting 
about all these lists, in this particular instance, is the spreading of the 
word in an exaggerated fashion.  Any list that is remotely related, is a 
candidate for these discussions, as the situation is rapidly approaching a 
crisis that cannot be ignored by the general public, any longer.  
Communication is the name of the game, and as many lists as possible need to 
take up the glove, and move to the center of the ring.  Nope, in this case, I 
would strongly encourage as much cross-posting with as many lists as 
possible, and sort the bandwidth concerns out later.  Spam is our friend, 
ally, and weapon if-you-will.  What do you think?
Thanks, Tom
