I agree that it is easy to do, but it's easy to buy PC's with perfectly
working versions of Windows.

But they can talk to the list -- or heaven forbid the secretary -- and
say something about it. If you subscribe to any "generic" mailing list
then you're almost certainly going to get some talk that you find
irrelevant...perhaps I should make the list fully moderated and filter
out all the topics that I think people won't be interested in.

Oh! I'd probably just block them all...(except for the meeting
announcements)...

*heheh*
